How do you find a flow to move from simply surviving to loving every minute of your life and thriving?

Huffington says: “To live the lives we truly want and deserve, and not just the lives we settle for, we need a third metric, a third measure of success that goes beyond the two metrics of money and power, and consists of four pillars: well-being, wisdom, wonder, and giving.”

American Express commissioned ” target=”_blank”>Lee Abbamonte, told me that you “have to work towards things and establish what you want to do. You can thrive. You can do anything.” His passion led him to set his goal to see 100 countries by his thirtieth birthday. He accomplished that goal five years early!

To build the life we want Huffington suggests using “meditation, yoga, getting enough sleep, renewing ourselves, and giving back” as tools that are the “ultimate everyday performance enhancers.”

Finding our wisdom by “recognizing what we’re really seeking: connection and love…we need to drop our relentless pursuit of success as society defines it for something more genuine, more meaningful, and more fulfilling.”

Defining success individually and living with enthusiasm is a worthwhile endeavor. As Huffington states: “We’re all on a journey, a voyage, a quest to slay the monster, free the princess, and return home.”” target=”_blank”>Katie O’Brien Eychis will have you spinning from the moment you enter her ” target=”_blank”>Loews Santa Monica twice a week.

As she says, “Hooping's greatest gift is the mind body connection that uniquely creates both a workout and a moving meditation at the same time. It is invigorating to the body and calming to the mind simultaneously. In this way, it resembles yoga, which is why I teach both. I've recently worked to create a fusion class of yoga with hoop. It's the new future of fitness and Hoopnotica is a big part of it.” I cannot wait to go to her hooping classes and learn a new trick or simply be told to move around the room and take up space.

I loved his ” target=”_blank”>Love Me Slender, we discussed the tools people need to better support their loved ones to achieve their goals. Your life partner can be your best advocate and coach for weight loss and support in turbulent times. Sadly many people feel relationship paralysis and while they want to give and receive support, they feel stuck and unclear on how to make their relationship work.

I highly recommend Ann Bradney of Radical Aliveness and Kamana Hunter of Bloodline Healing as ways to find new strategies for empowering your life, your relationship and bringing passion into all that you do.

Her website explains that “Radical Aliveness work is challenging, because it asks individuals to be fully present and honest; surprising, because it builds on the energy, emotions, and issues that pop up at any given moment; and exciting, because it connects us with our potential to bring a more authentic and powerful self to our lives, our interactions with others, and our connection with the world. It teaches us how to be effective, influential leaders in a new socio-political environment where we are all connected, where we can all participate, and where each individual is needed to create the wisdom of the whole.” Start by joining in the Radical Aliveness Core Energetics Institute.

Are you ready to Thrive?

Use the words from the song, Let It Go, from the movie Frozen, as your inspiration: “Fears that once controlled me, can’t get to me at all. It’s time to see what I can do, to test the limits and break through. No right, no wrong, no rules for me. I’m free. ….Here I stand in the light of day: Let the storm rage on!”

It is your time. What will you choose?
