You WILL feel better! - By Rose Larrabee

"You WILL feel better!"

Having been a Personal Trainer since 2008, I have offered many others motivation and encouragement in living a healthy lifestyle. I've seen so many individuals face circumstances that shake them emotionally, mentally and physically. I've been the one to help get them back on track and refocused on healthy living.

    

Not only have I and do I help keep others on track, but I also do so for myself. I know from personal experience, it's not always easy. Maintaining motivation can be very difficult especially when circumstances arise that throw us off of the track we've been on.

   

For myself these "curve ball" circumstances have involved sickness, pregnancy, moving to a new place & deaths in the family to name a few. All of these things have either interfered with my physical abilities, my hormones or my emotions.

    

There has been one truth that has always kept me and my clients on track or has lead us back to the track we fell off of. That truth is this, "You WILL feel better!" It's such a simple statement, but its so true. The moment we get back on track and begin again with healthy eating and regularly exercising we do start to feel better!

   

Although this may not always clear up our current situation...it will de-stress our bodies as well as our minds. Continuing to take care of yourself will strengthen you not only physically, but mentally and emotionally as well. Difficult circumstances won't seem so difficult, working through saddened emotions wont take as much work.

   

When things in life shake you up, when you're tempted to STOP or if you have stopped, know this... "You WILL feel better!" So keep on or get back on that track! Let the feeling of "better" meet you once again!

Call Me Brea :)

Hi everyone my name is Breannon, but you can just call me Brea for short. I am 19 years old, and I have lived in Lincoln all of my life. I graduated from Lincoln High School two years ago, and I am now attending Sierra College, but I hope to be attending Chico in the next year and a half to two years. Right now, I am working towards my general education and hopefully my AA in Early Childhood Education and in history or health education. 

I've always had a passion for teaching others, I am a water safety instructor and I also work at a preschool as an assistant preschool teacher. I have worked for McBean Pool here in Lincoln for three years now and have been a water Safety Instructor for two years. 

As a child, a teen and adult I've always had a passion for helping others and having others succeed: to help somebody with something they have always wanted do or had trouble doing. In my spare time I love to just sit outside and read or play with my dogs and walk. In life I want to inspire people to better themselves and love who they are as a person. Two of my quotes that I always live by are "Live the Life you Love and Love the Life you Live" and the second one is "Live Laugh Love".

YOUR Goals are MY Passion by Mikenna Kossow

YOUR  Goals  are  MY Passion

The world is full of people reaching towards their goals; many succeeding and many failing. Being a Personal Trainer, I get to be the little push some people need to reach those goals.  

I grew up in the world of athletics; starting at age 5 I played all different kinds of sports and usually committed myself to multiple teams / organizations at a time. I learned what it means to succeed and what it looks like to fail, based on the amount of work put in. I realize now that my success and my growth in my PASSION for sports specifically basketball, did not just happen solely on my own abilities, but because of the help, guidance, direction, coaching, and push from my coaches, instructors, and my peers.

I have always had the heart and desire to help others any way that I could. The more time I spent working out with others, the more I observed the effort and hard work they put in to BETTER their health and their lives,. The more I see, the FIERCER the stirring and burning in my heart to do more for them GROWS.

As I have had coaches and peers come along side of me to push me towards those goals, I want to do the same for YOU. I want to help because I care, because everybody who wants to TRY deserves the BEST for their life, because no body has to do it alone, and because I want to share my PASSION of fitness with others.

Helen Kellar once said, “ Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.” We all have goals and we’re all seeking change; you don’t have to reach them on your own. So ask someone to help guide you or walk alongside of you to reach the change you wish to see in your life.

Do you need someone to be your push?
