| Trina in Nautical Motion! |
There is something inherently therapeutic and restorative about being in or on the water, especially with weather this beautiful!
Trina recently ventured out of the city and spent a fantastic weekend in Muskoka doing all kinds of outdoor activities, including kayaking for the first time!
There is no limit to the range of water sports you can try, and you're bound to fall in love with at least one new outdoor activity this summer, all you have to do is pick something you're drawn to, and GET OUT THERE!!

| LONG WEEKEND LIVING!!! (And how to be friends with Monday!) | |
We deserve to have summer fun over the weekends, yes? YES! But staying cognizant of the inevitable return of Monday will help keep us balanced and energized throughout all the days of summer!
...with that in mind, sometimes a long-weekend at the cottage makes it tricky to bounce back into regular mode.
Trina loves the cottage just as much as the next gal, so read up her tips on HOW TO COMBAT 'LONG WEEKENDING' so that you're feeling great all week (while you look forward to another fun weekend)! |
| Smarter Summer Choices! | |
We're human! Of course we can still indulge in some summer treats from time to time!!
But if you want to indulge while feeling like you're sticking to your principals of making health-conscious choices, there are lots of options for you.
While some indulgences are...let's say, lacking in nutritional value, you can definitely still enjoy them in ways that are better for your body...
LICIOUS LIVING has created a fantastic chart detailing how we can make some Smarter Summer Choices when it comes to indulging (including how many calories we save)!

Baby Steps ~ ONE thing at a time!
When you get excited about a new fitness plan (or any new changes or challenges in your life) it can be very easy to want to charge full-speed ahead conquering any and all ground and trying to do it all at once...
If this works for you, by all means, GO FOR IT, but I just want to make sure you give youself permission to focus your energy on one attainable new goal at a time (hence, "baby steps")!
For instance, if you feel compelled to amp your fitness level to new heights and want to train for a triathalon (AMAZING), your first new fitness routine could be swimming laps 2x a week at the community pool (vs swimming 50 laps, followed by a 10K run, followed by a 15K bike ride).
I don't want to discourage you from pushing your limits (because you can do ANYTHING!), but do remember that fitness and health feels goood, so enjoy the process - that's what it's all about!
And in the spirit of focusing on one thing at a time (vs. Multi-tasking), check out this great article Trina found in the Harvard Business Review:
We would love to hear how TBT's Baby Steps have inspired you! Please share your experiences & send them to to Baby Steps! |
