Another year living life with my best friend...24 Another year living life with my best friend...24 and counting💕 So thankful for Chris and all he does for me and our family!
As I scrolled through my memories on Facebook yest As I scrolled through my memories on Facebook yesterday and today they were full of softball for Kristen and karate and 4 H for Jake. Springtime was full of running from one place to the next with my kiddos. If I'm honest, I've struggled for the past few years finding my place now that they are in college. My life revolved around homeschooling and their activities, and I knew it would be an adjustment. And yeah, it took me longer to adjust to this season in life than I wanted it too. But I've learned a lot this past year... I let go of what I thought this season would look like, and allowed myself to be open to different things. And what I've found in the past few months is life is busy again... in some new circles... doing new things... where I go to bed at night fulfilled because now things feel aligned. So thankful for life coaches that helped me see that I was striving for things that weren't meant to be, and in letting go and making space, I found peace and joy!
Life gets busy and we feel pulled in many differen Life gets busy and we feel pulled in many different directions. We put strain on our bodies and minds as we go about our many different tasks and take care of the many different responsibilities. And then we are told that we must take time for self care. But when is that supposed to happen?! I've found that self care can come in different forms and might look different each day. And I've also found that when I acknowledge something as "self-care" I have a different mindset and don't burn out as easily. So here's some things that serve as self care for me... some take time and others are for busy days when I'm on the go but still need to take care of me... ☕️Morning coffee and Bible journaling 🌿A quick skin care routine that I can enjoy 🧘‍♀️Yin Yoga on Wednesdays (1 hour long class that relaxes body and mind) 🫐Fueling well (and yes, sometimes an island detox smoothie from Tropical Smoothie 🐴Time with my horses and even just relishing in the walk out to feed them as the stand waiting. ☀️Time in the sunshine and dirt 💦Hydrating 🏃‍♀️Exercise 🍫And sometimes a tasty treat I used to get so frustrated when I felt like I didn't have time to really take care of myself. Changing my mindset was a game changer, and I have found that I can do some type of self care each day... even if it's just taking a moment to enjoy my skin care routine before bed. What's your favorite form of self care for busy seasons in life?
Started out the month of March enjoying this beaut Started out the month of March enjoying this beautiful day in Charleston with Chris and Kristen.
Today I got to sit on the sidelines and support my Today I got to sit on the sidelines and support my friend. We started karate around the same time... not as youngsters but as moms. Makes it little harder when you're trying something new as an adult. Fitness comes easy for some but for others and the older you get, it takes overcoming. I've watched my friend these past years push herself and learn and grow in this sport called karate. She pretested when I tested for my black belt, and I loved having her on the mat with me. Today she asked me to sign as a witness as she earned her black belt. I am so proud of her and so thankful for all those moments we have shared on the mat. Can't think of anyone more deserving of what she earned today🥋
Can't let the day end without a birthday post for Can't let the day end without a birthday post for my dad! As I thought over the words to share and scrolled through pictures, my heart is full because I am a blessed girl. I always am humbled by the fact that Glenn R. Shuler didn't have to be my dad, he chose to be. When he married my mom, he said yes to me and Shawn, and he was all in on being our dad. He's one of the kindest and most compassionate men you will ever meet. He's an awesome dad and that awesomeness spills over into filling the roll of grandad/ Pops too. He taught me to love fitness and exercise, so for those in my classes, you can blame him for those tough workouts😊 just kidding... I could go on and on about the awesome person he is, but most already know that because he's left a mark on his community. So please help me wish my dad a very happy birthday🎉
After teaching my Tai Chi class this morning at th After teaching my Tai Chi class this morning at the St. George Senior Center, I was asked the question, " What are the benefits of Tai Chi?" That's an easy question for me to answer now because of what I've witnessed in the past year. Here's what I'm seeing and being told by my group- 💫 More Stability and better balance 💫 Improved posture 💫 Improved muscle tone and core strength 💫 Focus and Stamina 💫 Stress relief And even weight loss I love when my class participants come to me excited to share improvement in areas where they thought they were stuck. Some have gone from doing the class seated to standing and being able to even do movements where we balance on one leg🙌 I am so proud of the dedication and hard work that my class participants put in. If you are 50+ in the St. George area, we have class at the David Sojourner Senior Center every Thursday at 10:30 AM. And for those around Elloree, we have an adult class at Lark Yoga at 9 AM on Tuesdays. Loving that my Tuesdays and Thursdays are filled with martial arts...Tai Chi and karate🙂

One of the most exciting things about being a fitn One of the most exciting things about being a fitness/ martial arts instructor is seeing the progress and the benefits that your class participants experience❤️ I have seen so much progress in the past few months in all of my classes, and I'm so inspired by everyone I have the privilege of instructing. Y'all inspire me to be better❤️🙂💪
Yesterday was about Tai Chi and karate... Today is Yesterday was about Tai Chi and karate... Today is about catching up on work for my husband/ Porth Contracting and a private karate session. The best thing I did in the past year was invest in mindset coaching! It revealed so much about how I was living my life... honestly in fear and trying to please others... to the point that I wasn't living in abundance because I was stuck in a place I really wasn't meant to be in. It was a place that got me where I am today, but it was time to let that part of me go... surrender. One of my mindset coaches asked me the hard questions. She made me really look at what was driving my decisions and if I was living in alignment. And the answer was NO. So I changed some things, gave up some things, and guess what??? It opened up space and opportunities for things I love! So a huge thanks to Megan Weisheipl , author of The Selfish Hour and an awesome mindset coach who BTW is opening up a new space for women, who asked the questions that made me really think through this stage of life. Ladies, here is your reminder to invest in yourself❤️Don't lose who you are trying to please everyone around you!
Such a cold but beautiful morning! We bundled up t Such a cold but beautiful morning! We bundled up to go take care of our horses and chickens, and then enjoyed a peaceful snowy walk around the property ❄️❤️ Have a beautiful and safe Sunday!

Our oldest 2 are sporting their blankets since we aren't sure they will eat enough hay to stay warm, but Bo has a thick furry coat with plenty of access to hay and doesn't mind the cold weather.

A beautiful sunrise, a cup of coffee, and time in A beautiful sunrise, a cup of coffee, and time in the Word is my favorite way to start the day. Thankful for a friend that recommended the Bible Recap to me. I love the God centered focus and the new things that are being revealed as I learn my Savior more. It's so easy to make Him small when life is hard, and I've done that more than I care to admit. I'm thankful He is a God who doesn't give up on his people, is there through the questions and doubts, and lovingly draws us back❤️ I'm curious, if you are in the Word, what is God revealing to you these days?
When I first started taking karate it was because When I first started taking karate it was because I loved fitness and a challenge, but I was really intimated to even try. Honestly, if the first classes had not been offered on zoom, I might not have had the courage to actually step out on the mat. But the thought that kept me going was, "But what if I CAN?!?" And I had the encouragement of an awesome instructor and a supportive family... especially my son who talked me through a lot on those hour long rides back and forth to Karate and a hubby who filled that gap when Jake left for college. I never imagined where those karate classes would lead... to the desire to get a certification in personal training... to learning Tai Chi and becoming a certified instructor... to actually becoming a black belt... to teaching classes of my own... to 5 awesome people earning their yellow belts under my instruction... to seeing the benefits of Tai Chi and the fitness classes for the adults. It humbles me that I get to help individuals receive the benefits I saw Jake receive when he first started karate. I never would have imagined martial arts and fitness would become such a huge part of my life but I'm loving it🥋❤️💫 #grateful #blessed
You may not be the average middle age woman when y You may not be the average middle age woman when you get excited about buying yourself a Century Bob for Christmas... but here I am🤣 Now he can accompany me to for the fitness classes when we work on self defense😊 Gonna have a fun afternoon "break in" session with Jake and his friend Tyler🥊🥋
I was challenged a few years ago to choose a word I was challenged a few years ago to choose a word of the year, and it has become a practice that I have continued. Some years it's been an character trait that I wanted to work toward and other years it's been an action that I wanted to be intentional about. This year I chose the word "surrender." Over the past few months I have realized just how much I have been resisting change in my life, how much I was striving to hold onto things that were no longer serving me well, and how much I struggle with control. And I also realized how much these things were stealing my joy. There is no doubt I've grown in the past year as I've stepped into the phase of life of having adult children. But I've also realized I haven't fully embraced this phase of life. So here's to a year of working toward surrender.... in many areas of my life... and seeing where God takes me as I work to release expectations and striving to make things fit where they don't. In a message by the pastor at GraceLife in Columbia, he focused on Isaiah 43:19, and that is a verse I'm embracing this year... "Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert." Do you have a word or verse that you plan to focus on this year? *photo from my walk around the homestead yesterday.
Happy New Year🎉 Had to start the new year off wit Happy New Year🎉 Had to start the new year off with the traditional greens and peas🙂 Hoping 2026 is a little softer to us than 2025, but I'm walking into 2026 grateful for a God who is present with us and equips us with strength❤️ A prayer for 2026... "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope." Romans 15:13
