RE: What The Bleep: physical exercise program

[Guest guest]

I

definitely agree that spirituality and diet go hand in hand along with the

other aspects of our lives (physical, mental, emotional). I read your fabulous bio

(Lynda) for a second time back when you posted the question and I never took

the time to put in my 2 cents….partially because I have so many times

before and didn’t’ want to be redundant for those who have been

connected to raw soul for a while.  I was

hoping to hear from others as I have enjoyed the responses from those who have

posted prior to your request, in past posts. 

I am definitely looking forward to “What the Bleep” coming

to Virginia, thanks for spreading the word. 

 

 

 

I am putting my feelers out to for two ideas I had. 

 

In an attempt to stay focused on physical

exercise I went to a “personal fitness program” site I found in a

search. Though I liked the ideas it fostered: accountability to commitment,

dialogue with counselor, new workout ideas, I did not to the

program.  I did not want to commit to

someone/something with such different nutritional ideas.  Along the lines of spirituality and diet

going hand in hand, I think that one’s exercise program should follow

suit with the lifestyle choice made. 

 

Now to my first idea, I’m interested

in doing something similar to the 21 day raw challenge while incorporating

fitness goals.  We could have general

guideline to help direct goals while allowing flexibility for individuals to

make/achieve personal/individualized goals. 

We could have a start/stop date for those who are interested, yet allow

anyone to jump on board when they are ready. It would be motivating for me to

be some degree accountable to more than just myself.  By sharing similar goals, we are accountable

to our commitment to try for a designated amount of time to help us achieve

life long goals towards improvement.   My

idea is to start on the first day of Fall, September

22nd and run for 21 days. (3 weeks is the amount of time they say it

takes your body to adjust to something new, so hopefully the end result will

carry over for the duration.) 

 

Is anyone interested in doing a raw

fitness challenge beginning on Fall Equinox? 

  Personal goals could focus on

being more raw (the degree is up to you) and improving

your fitness activity (the degree is up to you).  If one makes a 2% change every week, within a

year he will have changed 100%....I’d like to begin refining with the

coming of the new season!  Is anyone else

in???

 

Now, for #2, I am also toying with the idea

of beginning personalized fitness programs for people.  I have a degree in Health and Physical

Education. I have taken certification courses in Personal Training, Aerobics

and Bench Stepping.   I have personally

trained for and participated in: 5K and 10K events, four ½ marathons, one

marathon, 4 triathlons, and 2 run/swim/runs among other events.  (Notice I said participated in, not competed

in…it is all for fun/fitness and enjoyment.)  Though I am not a doctor, I do feel I have the

background knowledge, practical experience, and level of commitment to help

those who need help in the area of fitness. 

 I was thinking of designing a

background questionnaire and goals sheet to evaluate individual needs to enable

me to create personalized training programs with ongoing support through e-mail

communications.  As I said before, I am just

putting my feelers out to see if there is any interest.  If anyone has any ideas/thoughts or input, it

will be appreciated.  If anyone is

interested in this type of consultation from me please e-mail me and let me

know via or off the loop.  All information e-mailed off the loop will, of

course, be kept confidential.  I would

like to know if this is something of interest to others and worth pursuing.   

 

Great health to all,

 

 

 BEV

What The Bleep

 

Blessing Raw Family,

Not too long ago ,I put out a request for those folks

on the live food path to engage in a little spirirtual wareness and

developement. I didnot get a response . I believe spirituality goes hand and

hand with the diet !

Perhaps no one had the time. So today I want to bring some spiritual

enlightenment to you. Currently in Dc there is a Movie showing that has been

showing on the West Coast for months

" What The Bleep " It is currently showing at : The Loews

31117 K St NW. in DC and in New York in the Village
