I’m going to keep this positive and light! I am not going to get depressed over the shortened days and cooler weather. I’m not going to panic that I haven’t done all my fall registration for sports and activities and I’m not going to stress over school lunches and snacks. Instead I am going to put my meditation to practical use and be grateful. We soaked in the summer rays, swam in fresh water, gazed at the star filled skies, felt the wind on our faces as the boat coasted on the water, toasted with friends, bonded on hikes, explored hidden trails, smashed it up on the pickleball court and slept in more times than we can count.
Thank you summer. I hope the beauty of life continues through our next transition.

If you are a teacher or a coach- this podcast is a must listen! If you wish to mentor the next generation- listen to this podcast and if you see yourself as a future leader- learn from a person who inspires many.

This isn’t a podcast about training the countries elite athletes- it’s about how we as people /humans are meant to be active and healthy both physically and mentally. How sports is supposed to be about moving and training our bodies, being focused, working together as team and enjoying success. Getting a nation active and healthy is a massive task- but people are laying the foundation. The National Health And Fitness Foundation is made up of members of parliament, senators, and government leaders to help Canadians lead healthy, active lifestyles.  A National health and fitness day actually exists- did you know that? Maybe that wasn’t covered in the phys-ed class we didn’t have to take, Or,  maybe it wasn’t mentioned as kids are playing a single sport from the time they are born with a parent dreaming of them going pro one day.

Pierre takes us through what it means to lead by example, offers ideas and opportunities to families who can’t afford to “play” and emphasizes why its our responsibility to take action for the next generation.

Wishing everyone a smooth transition back into the school year….health and happiness.
Much Love,
Lianne xo
