Get Poked

On this day, I celebrate my Mom (duh, of course) but I also celebrate myself bc raising a kid 100% solo is not for the weak of heart. So I hope you enjoy this blast from the past picture montage… I have 1 million pictures of Grace as a baby, a toddler, and a young girl, but that era happened before the Instagramification of the universe. So on this special day, I went back into the archives and pulled out some sweet photos of Grace and I - mother and daughter, and then my mom and I, mom and daughter, and then Grace and My Mom, grandma and granddaughter… Because I couldn’t have achieved what I did with raising Grace without my mom‘s help. And yes, I had not just a bad hair day. I had a bad hair - many years long. It was my God forsaken, ill programmed feminist years, please forgive. lol #momanddaughter #solomom #iam1stphorm

A stretch n fold moment amongst a million in a lifetime. Results are earned… over time. Let. It. Cook. Nothing instant gratification oriented going on around here. The good stuff comes through reps, consistency and aggressive patience (as Andy Frisella says). (Plus, I busted myself spying the camera, haha)

WHAT IF….
At the age of 39…
43…
54…
59…
62…
69+…

You looked in the mirror every morning and said to yourself…

🥰 “Damn, I look good!”
🎉 “I love how vibrant my skin looks!”
💖 “I am radiant, confident, and comfortable in my own skin.”
🌈”I am grateful for my unique and fully expressive face!”
🎊 “I love how healthy I feel in all of my body!”
And the best one…
💪”Midlife keeps getting BETTER AND BETTER…”

It’s possible. It’s all possible.

From the DEEP inside out, I got you!

Never say never… you just have to be patient and let the deeper healing cascade through your being. Reach out for a consultation. It would be my greatest honor to work with you and help you reclaim your infinite badass self.

Surrender

It’s a thought, a concept, a word that makes us all think about a person who is weak… A person who gives up.

It is usually delineated for the person who’s losing a battle .

But after the last two months of having my chronic glaucoma, I came to an apex of fear, pain, and concern for my future… I realized that surrender was the greatest way I was going to level up.

Now I understand from the inside out that there is strength and wisdom in surrendering or “submitting” to a plan that’s outside of my control… I did it once with my physique, but this one went deeper.

In order for me to no longer have eye issues, I needed to surrender to the idea of getting new lenses put in my eyes. The ONE area in my body that I was most guarded… my weakest area. I mean your eyes are YOUR EYES! You only get one pair!

Now that I have successfully surrendered to a million eye drops, laser procedures, blood pressure checks, stating my birthdate a million times to 20 nurses, getting anesthesia, having procedure after procedure involving extracting my lenses and replacing them with high powered bionic new ones, I no longer have the threat of glaucoma looming around me, AND I also have the benefit of never having to wear glasses again and having 2020 vision!

Surrendering to a plan beyond what you think is best for you… Can be one of the most powerful plays you make in your life.

You just need to get out of your own way, SURRENDER to what can become, and follow the gameplan, whether you like it or not! I did and now there’s a whole new chapter of life in front of me - one I could have NEVER imagined… glasses free. Miracles do happen. Get out of your own way and follow the plan you’re avoiding.

Level up!

I somehow understand the nuance of what happened yesterday…. better now. 😂😂

leave it to the tik tokers to deliver solid entertainment.

We are living in a wholly split timeline.

Half the country is ecstatic. Half the country is legitimately scared.

So I focus on humor. That’s been my gameplan for the past many many years. That plus Prince.

Silly reels, deep meaning😆🤝🏻

My Week In Review:
1. Get a nasty sinus headache cold.
2. Smash my glasses frames/break the arm.
3. Still do my weekly assessment bc the weekly accountability is crucial for me to remain focused on my health.
4. Have a VERY scary eye pressure freak out (I have chronic glaucoma - thanks genetics)
5. Needle/RLT myself bc I can, for my eye and why not do some anti gravity needling too 😉.
6. Keep studying for my CPT exam throughout all the 👁️ wonkiness bc I got an exam to take in Kona on saturday!
7. FOB key battery dies… must dissect to get the new battery.
8. Gather my “better for you - day in Kona” snacks for test day!
9. When in Kona we go Costco… the haul.
10. Grace got some good play time.

And then I fell into a head cold for the rest of this week and missed 3 workouts. But what I’m not missing?…. TRACKING MY FOOD AND LOCKING IN MY PROTEIN AND CALORIES AND WATER. Controlling the controllables is such a mental game. The best way that works for me to keep this sharp and to always constantly be reminding myself of my long-term goals… That way my short term decisions, stay in alignment. 🫶🏻 I literally talk to myself out loud and restate my long-term goals, again and again. I may sound like a crazy lady, but it helps me win each small battle. #1p menopause midlife perimenopause fat loss journey coaching motivation

Slowing down wrinkle formation, lifting up despite gravity… adding the glow back in despite life’s stresses. 2.5 years committed to a natural ~ vibrant skin from within ~ approach building better Qi and Blood to the face. It’s working. Smetimea instant gratification is not the better choice. #1P, Facial rejuvenation, cosmetic acupuncture, midlife, menopause health

To that end, I believe there are six pillars for WHOLE-HEALTH LIVING:

KIM

As a child, Kim's dad always thought she would become a lawyer for a few simple reasons - she questioned everything, she was persistent and stubborn, and she was highly observant. So, although she didn't pour her focus into the legal realm, she did utilize these built in attributes to excel in Health, Wellness, and Human Optimization.

An injury in 1999, exposed Kim to the world of acupuncture and how effective it is in attaining lasting healing. From that first hand experience, she decided to focus on Oriental Medicine as her career. Along her educational journey, she became a student of Master Acupuncturist, Dr. Chieko Maekawa. Dr. Maekawa deepened Kim's acupuncture skills beyond school basics and gave her a "Mr. Miyagi/Karate Kid" deep dive into the doctor's lineage. Seitai Shinpo, "correct posture acupuncture method," guided Kim to becoming one of Dr. Maekawa's first graduates.

Kim has been practicing since 2004, in Hilo where she treats everything from basic aches and pains to all the mysterious untreatable "syndromes" doctors can't understand.
