Breaking Through Old Habits to Live a Vital and Playful Life

Catherin Hartshorn. Berkeley, California. I'm most excited about loving myself and my daily life. Part of what I committed was, I want to be light-hearted and playful and not so responsible and burdened down by chores and tasks. So, I want to have more fun. I want to stay healthy and that's a real challenge for me. I'm committed to doing that and then having more fun. People I love, easy to be with, no tension and acrimony among anybody. People want to be around me and want to come hang out. That my husband... I expect he'll die ahead of me and that's been pretty hard to think about. But now it's like, 'okay, he probably will.' It's going to be really hard but I'm going to be okay. I'm going to have a good life and I'm just continuing to enrich it between now and then. Well, it's advertised as it's life changing and I think it is. That's yet to be seen for me because I will see what I do the next few months and years. But it's a place to break through old habits that you haven't been able to change. And to create - to open the vision of 'oh, this is possible.' Just 'cause my family says you need to deteriorate to a nursing home. I think, well, some people are vital and alive til they die. I thought 'if they can be, why not me?' And that I can heal parts of my body that are troublesome, that it's possible and I can stay healthy... and happy. So, it's life changing. I would say that People should come to help get them unstuck and move to live the life they want. One of my phrases for myself was, "I am who I want to be."
