Okay, bumping one more time -- trying to get all the perspective I can get!

I'm not an ex-smoker, but I have dealt with co-dependency issues. Any sort of co-dependency (any compulsive behaviors/thoughts) fall under the same tree, just different roots. I love Melody Beattie's book The Language of Letting Go. A book of daily meditations -- little spiritual morsels...

Just another cheer for you! Keep practicing in your living room (I still do it!), then do like A-Jock suggested and see if you can start by teaching the warm up and cool down of a fellow instructor's class. Then, keep building. Any instructor has been there before and should be MORE than...

Thanks for the suggestion -- So, are you still certified through AFAA, or did you go on to another organization after experience training w/ your AFAA certification?

You ALL rock. Thank you. I've got a lot of thinking, no impulsive decisions, but a lot of thinking ahead of me. It's all about listening to your gut, right? That little voice never goes away. You gotta pay attention to it. Because really, it's not a "little" voice. It's the biggest we've...

Hi, I don't post everyday, but I read regularly and know you all are wise, supportive women. I need advice or just a place to vent! I work in news (can you tell!?), and have been on a "floating" schedule since August with my new position. Granted, this is a 24/7 business. When I moved here...
