Video: Winter Freedom with Motion Heat

Finally conquering the cold with Motion Heat!

Hello friends!
I am super excited to announce that I have partnered with Motion Heat (Power In Motion) this year as an ambassador for this awesome Canadian company.  Motion Heat produces the heated gloves (and now vests!) that I have come to depend upon for my winter recreation.  Those who know me, know that I not only run a few degrees cold, but that I also live with a condition called Raynauds which effects the circulation in my hands.  

I am stoked to let you know that I have a special discount code available for my friends, family and followers- that's you!  If you or someone you know, wants to be warm in winter, then please head online using this link, and the discount code below, to order your very own heated gloves and/or vest.  This special 10% discount will only be available until February 15th, afterwards, I will have a 5% discount for you.

A few years ago, I discovered the Motion Heat battery powered gloves, after an absolutely bone chilling mountain bike trip where winter came early and snow hit us by surprise.  As usual with cold conditions, my Raynauds kicked up and I temporarily lost use of my hands, then ended up in tears of pain when the circulation returned.  Those who live with Reynauds will understand.  It is not about 'being cold', it really is a debilitating condition that can dramatically impact your life, recreation and activity choices.  It can also lead to long term disability if not managed correctly.  After that trip, my good friends all pitched in to buy me the Motion Heat gloves because they were tired of watching me cry in pain on our adventures.  I am so lucky to have such sweet friends!  

These gloves have literally changed my life.  In the past, cold weather severely restricted the activities that I could participate in and the Raynauds created a fair amount of anxiety during winter recreation.  No more! 

I wrote this unbiased product review after trying out the gloves (years before partnering with Motion Heat) and now I am proud to represent this company because they produce awesome products that I truly believe in.  The new vest, is a game changer too!  Now I don't have to wear 3000 layers when I am coaching outdoors- I can just wear one shirt and one jacket like a regular person lol!

4 Amazing, Short Trail Running Videos

Hello trail lovers!
Each week I look for inspiring adventure films to share with my Team ELM Online, and of course, to fill my cup and get me stoked for my own adventures;).  Every now and then a film comes along that sticks to your soul.  These 4 short films do that for me and I am sure that they will inspire you too.  There is no need to be a trail runner to feel the stoke that spreads from these...enjoy!

Video: How to Create a Vision Board

Happy New Year! 

I hope you are as excited about this year as I am:)  What does the coming year have in store for you? Well, that, my friends, is up to you:)

It is time to look ahead and create a clear vision for your future!  It is easy to get so caught up in the day to day that we fail to even take the time to ask ourselves what our vision actually is.  When was the last time you asked yourself any of these important questions:

What do you want to get out of this life?  Next year?  What are your priorities?  What are your dreams?  How do you want to spend your days?  What do you want to do with that amazing body of yours?  Where do you want it to take you?  What fears do you want to get cozy with so that you can say goodbye to?  What limits and edges do you want to expand?  What is your vision?

When we fail to get clear on our vision, we have no direction, no signs and no light to illuminate our path.  Taking the time to create a clear vision, puts our goals and dreams at the top of our list and demonstrates that we are ready to make them a priority.  That is only step one, of course;)  Step two, is creating an action plan that moves you in the right direction.  Step three is taking small (or huge!) steps every single week and even every single day, that lead you there.  

There are different ways to create visions such as brainstorming theme words, writing vision statements from the perspective of your future self (after realizing them) and creating a vision board.  These activities are more about the process, than the product, and taking the time to get clear with your future, will launch you miles closer to your dreams and goals.

I have created a short video explaining how I create my vision boards, to give you some inspiration to get started on your own. There is no 'right' way, other than to simply get started!  Here is what you will need:

• Pile of your favourite magazines.
• Poster board
• Scissors/glue/tape etc.
• Beverage of your choice:)
• Fun with friends or solo, up to you!

Have fun!  Let me know how your own vision board turns out- send me a photo at info@elmhealth.com .  Have a vision but not sure how to create a plan to get there?  I would love to help!  Check out my Online Training Plans or shoot me a message and we can brainstorm:)
Cheers,
Sarah.
