Category: Everything Under the Moon

Your guide to everything under the moon, the Amber Moon, 2/4/24.

Blueberry, my car, recently had a little boo-boo and got a little body work done, during which I had the “luxury” of a modern rental car (as opposed to my 2010 low tech car). My favorite thing about this rental was that I got my Audible account linked to the in-car system and was able to listen to a book. In the 9ish days I had the rental, I got thru most of 1 book – The Cyclist’s Training Bible: The World’s Most Comprehensive Training Guide.

And then I got Blueberry back. I can hook into the stereo system with an AUX cable, but I have to take the phone case off to get the cable to sit correctly. It was a pain.

I start looking at the case and WHY it doesn’t work.

I have an impact driver, drill bits, and I know how to use them.

I enlarge the AUX hole. A lot. And now it works! I can keep the case on AND listen to books.

It’s a 35-40 min drive each way to the Austin Studio. While I now plug the phone in vs the automatic wi-fi connecting in the rental, it’s a small step that I don’t mind, and I get to listen to books. I’m already on to next: 80/20 Triathlon: Discover the Breakthrough Elite-Training Formula for Ultimate Fitness and Performance at All Levels.

And now I’ll be driving a little more as track season starts up. More books. YAY.

Getting your PlaySpan to equal your LifeSpan

One of my continuing education sessions from 2022 was presented by DotFit. Nutrition, research based, that is designed to help you increase how long you are active – your “playspan”, and increase it to where it is close to your lifespan. We all want that, right? The one thing that impressed me during the presentation was their multivitamin. It’s updated with new research on keeping the mind healthy, active, attentive.

Especially their over 50 one. I’ve got my mom starting on it. Other family have been on it. We’ve got some dementia in the family, so I’m doing what I can to minimize our risk. With research.

If you’re looking for a new multivitamin, take a look at this one. Read their research. See what you think.

Your guide to everything under the moon, the Amber Moon, 1/18/24.

Yes, you’re right.

I’m a week late with this Hello Sunshine. I was outside prepping my gardens, chickens, & house for that winter weather we had last week. I didn’t even realize until Tuesday I had missed it.

Everyone survived! I’ve still have a garden! Except for the 1 chicken that was molting (she was about half naked), they managed. That one, Angel, got to spend about 2 days in the garage with a little higher protein food & a heat lamp to help her with the molting. She’s been good outdoors since.

I harvested my first ever broccoli crown right before that arctic blast (hand in inset pic for size reference), and I’ve got 3 more growing, waiting for me. I’ve still got onions, cabbage, swiss chard, and some mystery plants from last spring growing (likely brussels, more broccoli & …. uhhh…) as well.

A little about YOU, my clients

Last update I mentioned that I had 10 new clients – let me tell you a little more about YOU, my existing clients:

• A few of you have been with me since I started at the Y (2006) – with personal training, then Viniyoga & Pilates classes.
• I asked for guinea pigs among the Northwest YMCA staff as I started massage school in 2007. Many of those guinea pigs are still with me.
• Sometimes, you opt to change the service you use at Amber Moon Studio. Or do more than 1 thing at a time. Massage becomes Pilates. Pilates becomes CST. How about Personal Training AND Massage? It depends on what YOU need.

Knee update

The biggest thing I’ve noticed the past few weeks is that my creativity is back. My knee isn’t taking so much attention & energy.

During the arctic blast, I was out creating more wind block for the flock, and managed to slip on a slick cinder block stair coming out of my shed. I landed on my side more than my knees – I know because I had 2 eggs in that pocket that got crushed. My SI joint got a little tweak, knees were good, no bruises. Everything was a little tender. Took it easy the rest of the day, got a chiropractic adjustment once everything opened again, & I’m good now. That was a big *whew*. I’ve since leveled the block, and cousin Amy got me some anti-slip tape to put on top. That’s not gonna happen again!

I switched physical therapy facilities with the new year/new insurance, so it’s taken a little bit to get that going. Every physical therapist sees things differently, so I’ve a few new daily exercises added in that have been making a difference. I’m doing short intervals biking & walking, keeping it about 35-40 min. Beyond that total time, I’ve noticed my knee doth protest. My strength training (therapy & beyond) is coming along quite nicely. Loving playing with my training & progressions.

Amber Eats: Playing with my food. Again.

I happened upon a new single serve “bread” recipe. It’s pretty much fiber, protein & seasoning. Depending on how you make it, this could also be a muffin. The original recipe called it an English muffin.

You decide.

Flax bread/muffin recipe

• 1/4 c ground flax
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp baking powder
• options: sweetener (just a touch), seasonings

Mix all together, choose your container – I actually mix in the one I choose – and microwave for 90 seconds. Prefer a sammich? Pick a flatter container (I use a shallow bowl). You a muffin person? Use a mug or 3 cup ramekin. Maybe divide it in 2 smaller ones. With the high flax content it stays moist. Remove from container & enjoy immediately!

I’ve used a small amount of agave & a few berries for a muffin.

For bread, I typically add garlic & black pepper. Pictured above it’s an egg salad sammich (slice the shallow container bread in half the easy way).

Be creative. You do you!

Thanks for reading all this way down here!

If you read something that inspired you, or you tried the recipe, I’d love to hear – drop me an email, text, DM.

It’s here! A new year! Time to start fresh, maybe to renew, process & learn from 2023, & move forward.

2023 was a very good year. I finally got that 2nd new knee. The first knee started behaving and now they are almost equal. I’ve started walking again. I am finally able to bike with no limits except fitness. I’m beginning to feel progress back to being me – active, athletic, and able to do things without pain. I completed 2 aquabike events and 1 Mamma Jamma ride before the left knee said “less please”. One room in the house finally got done (except flooring). The garage got organized, the Blueberry (my car) can come in AND have all the plants inside AND have room to move around. I got to spend quality time with #cousinextraordinare Amy in Yellowstone & during knee #2. I lost Gypsy in January, and finally don’t tear up every time I see a pic of her.

As for the Studio, I had 10 new clients join the energy of what I’ve created. I took over the Austin Studio space & made it my own. I coached middle school cross country for the first time, giving back to those that helped me embark on my love of running & future fitness career. I’ve typically have limited openings most weeks, and income is finally back up to pre-COVID levels. *whew*

The athletes I coach have done some amazing things. One ran Boston. They’ve podiumed. They’ve competed at new distances. They’ve laughed & learned. As have I.

I got back into educating myself:

• Systems Informed Therapy: The Body
• Systems Informed Therapy: The Mind
• Postural Corrective Exercise Certification
• FloridaMania
• The Enteric Brain (craniosacral therapy)

My biggest take aways: Do what you love. Be an active participant to get back to it, if needed. It won’t just happen on its own. Create an environment where you thrive, then those around you will too. You’ll attract those of similar energy. Learn. Always learn. Laugh more. Love more.

Vicki’s Art

I’ve had several people comment on the art in the Austin studio. It’s from a client, and if you’re interested, she’s now got her art available online.

Classes

We are back to normal, and I’ve actually been doing most of the Pilates & Viniyoga classes since early December. Depends on when I have physical therapy as to how much of EUTM I am willing to do. All this sitting just not cutting it. Had to move. Come join me in having fun again! Packages are available.

Just a note that track will run thru 1/18 (Th), and then take a break until March. This program is now run thru City of Taylor – $5/session or $40 for 10 on their fitness punch pass.

Thank you!

For reading this far, for contributing to the energy of Amber Moon Studio, and for just general awesomeness on your part. I’d love to hear your reflections on your 2023.

Your guide to everything under the moon, the Amber Moon, 12/17/2023

I’m officially into outpatient PT. I’m so far ahead of the curve, she’s having fun with me. My first day was evaluation, and there was a 6 min walk test – “we’re gonna run out of sidewalk” and “we won’t need to retest this at the end”. They were impressed that I’m already walking a mile and biking outdoors for 30 minutes. Upon finding out I was a runner/triathlete, she did asked me if I tried running yet. Ooooo…. don’t tempt me!

Alas, no I have not.

I’m 7 weeks out as of 12/18. I think that’s a little early to be running. My bones are still healing. I do have to regularly remind myself regularly that I’m only “X” weeks post-op.

I feel I’m doing a pretty good job balancing getting my home rehab, the cardio, work AND rest in. I’m ready for the next short break that Christmas brings, and at the moment Dec 27-29 are light (I’ll gladly fill it though!), so I get some down time, and time to prep for 2024.

So what’s on my agenda for 2024? Get stronger at walking & biking. Keep swimming. 1-2 Aquabike events. Expand my horizons with coaching middle school track, and coach cross country again in the fall. Get a better spring & fall garden than last year. Grow more of my own food. Finish painting tasks in the house. Keep up with my accounting. Get the hall (studio) bath updated. Play more. Hike more (likely a fall endeavor). Continue to grow the studio. Maybe a return to teaching an in-person class or 2. Get ready to start running in 2025.

What’s on your list? I’d love to hear!

Holiday hours

I’m taking off December 25 & 26, and January 1. Otherwise, studio is open as usual. Yes, I’ll be in Austin on Wednesdays, 1-6ish.

Classes

Except for Tues, 12/26, classes run as normal. No track 12/26 or 28. Everything resumes 1/2/24.

Just a note that track will run thru 1/18 (Th), and then take a break until March. This program is now run thru City of Taylor – $5/session or $40 for 10 on their fitness punch pass.

Personal sessions are available during the break time.

Taylor & Virtual sessions

The week of Dec 18 is currently running FULL. Last minute openings happen. Please check my scheduler or reach out.

Upcoming openings

• Wed, 12/27, I could be talked into a 1145a if the 1P in Austin doesn’t get booked.
• Thurs, 12/28, 330p
• Fri, 12/29, 145 or 2p

Austin Studio

It’s almost here – more Austin studio days/times! Starting Jan 5, I’ll be there every other Friday 130-4, or so. Some weeks it’s already flexed a little based on what else I’ve got going on. So if you are looking for a regular slot (or an irregular one!) and not seeing an opening on Wednesday, here’s your chance. I’ve got Fridays in the scheduler thru March 1, so you no longer have to go thru me. It is a bit of computer work for me to get Fridays in, so I’m only going to have 1-2 months open at a time. Act now and get your Friday slot ASAP!

Upcoming Austin openings

• Wed, 12/27, 1p, 330p
• Fri, 1/5, 345 or 4p (30 or 45 min only)
• Wed, 1/17, 1-3p
• Fri, 1/19, 230-415p

Happy Holidays to all!

Thank you for being a part of Amber Moon Studio! I genuinely appreciate each and every one you.
May your holiday season be merry & bright, how ever you choose to celebrate.

Your guide to everything under the moon, the Amber Moon, for the 2 weeks starting 11/26/23

It’s been 4 weeks since knee #2 got replaced, and I’m so far ahead of the curve on this one. Even my PTs are amazed where I am. My range of motion is from 0* to 120*. At 6 months, the right knee (#1) was still at 110. It really is a night & day difference between the 2. I managed to get out on my road bike briefly this past Saturday. Yes, range of motion is really good, and I’m still reminded I’m only 4 weeks out. I am still healing. My endurance is still low. I still need lots of sleep. And the amazing #cousinAmy is going home on Wednesday. I’ve been gradually taking over home duties, and I know my kitchen counters are not going to stay clear!

So what does this mean for the studio?

• Classes will still be taught from a chair through end of year. Then I’ll re-evaluate.
• Massage sessions – I’m starting to stand a little in each, so it depends on how many sessions I’ve got in a day as to how much standing/sitting I’ll be doing. Too much standing at once affects me the next day. No bueno.
• Everything else is pretty much normal.

Your guide to everything under the moon, the Amber Moon, for the 2 weeks starting 11/12/23

I’m doing remarkably well. This knee is a night & day difference from knee #1. Firstly, I highly recommend nerve ablation. It was done 2 weeks prior to surgery. I’ve not been on opioids for pain, just Tylenol. Secondly, this knee had a completely different reason for being replaced, and wasn’t as severely out of alignment like the other one. Thirdly, the rest of me was in much better shape going IN to surgery. I hadn’t compensated my walk, which messed with my low back, SI joint & hips on the first knee.

So, 2 weeks off was good. I’ve worn myself out this weekend (in the best possible way), and taken naps (oh blessed naps!). I wasn’t ready to come back until now.

With that said, things will still be modified:

• Classes & Personal Pilates sessions will be taught from the chair. Not been to a class? It’s a great time to get that attention on form & technique you need, since I can really que what you need.
• Massages will be done in the medical or CST format for a bit. In English, you’ll be clothed and on top of the sheets. My ability to stand and apply pressure into massage strokes is not there yet. I will need to be seated for the majority of the session, at least thru Thanksgiving.
• Cousin Amy will be in charge. If she says I need to cancel, I cancel. I can’t always see that I need to. She will. I have been needing a nap a day (lunch-ish), so a reschedule might be in order.

The good news – I’m so far ahead of where I was with my other knee, that I’m hoping I’m back to “normal services” before long. Classes will likely be the thing that takes me the longest time to get back to doing normally.

Thank you

Wanted to say a huge thank you to the favor I put out – I had numerous offers to prepay, I accepted some, and am holding the others in mind in case I need. A few extra expenses popped up that first week off, but it’s all covered now.

Yeah, I’m so ready.

Cousin Amy & I have gotten a lot done around the house in prep for this. Ready to go to bed, get a good night’s sleep, and then get a new knee (5a arrival, home that afternoon).

So I’m out for the next 2 weeks. Last knee, the 1.5 weeks I took off just wasn’t enough. Let’s keep fingers crossed that this one has me twiddling my thumbs.

Amy will be posting updates on my personal Facebook page, and I’ll post something quick here by mid-/end of week, let you know how I’m doing.

Until then… happy positive healing thoughts welcome!

Your guide to everything under the moon, the Amber Moon, for the 2 weeks starting 10/15/23

Yes, Knee #2 installation draws nigh… I’m ready! This knee is on decline, and seems to be declining at just the right time. It’s like I talked to the Universe and asked it to hold on until after cross country was over.

And cross country IS over. Happy/ sad. Our last meet – our division finals – was inspiring. To have seen all these little people training since early August, and finally showing their best. I was just proud. I admit, I hugged a few. They’ve come so far. My 5/6 girls WON their division. By seconds. The other groups (7/8, boys & girls in all the various combos) all placed top 3 in teams, we took 1st individual honors in both boys races, and our top girl was 2nd. Lots of top 15 medals all around.

It was nice to be seen as part of a team. We had other coaches coming up to congratulate us, comment on how BIG our team was (50ish kids over 4 divisions – probably 40 race each weekend). Our team has depth. Something a lot of teams don’t have.

I’m excited to see what they’re gonna do in Track this Spring. Shouldn’t affect my Studio schedule too much… I just need to remember to not do anything else while it’s going on!

The same day, my assistant coach Stephanie out here in Taylor was leading the Taylor Track Time athletes at the Good Life 5k. From this group we had 2 age group winners!

I know she’s excited to be embarking on this journey as coach, and having FUN while doing it. We’ve got 2 more events coming up – Veterans Beer Run 5k and Run for the Roses 5k/10k.

Your guide to everything under the moon, the Amber Moon, 10/2/23

So here it is. Monday. October. Lots of info right there!

Monday – means I’ve been busy if I’m just getting around to writing this. Between clients & XC coaching, I’m running a little full. There are 2 weeks left in the season, then a break. A little normality. A few more Taylor openings, too! I ready to have a little more free time. Until I see the youngsters again!

October – means Knee #2 is 4 weeks away! I had my CT scan & pre-op appointments this morning. It’s getting real. Which is good cuz knee #2 is getting unhappier, quickly. I think I scheduled it at just the right time. So if you see me starting to sit more during sessions (regardless of format), there is a reason.

Check your gut

I mentioned in a FB/IG post recently that I had a “gut health check” done – and found out more about my food issues. I’m not making digestive enzymes. Nor do I have much gut microbiome – of the 6 types of gut bacteria, I have 1 present.

So I’ve started working with my rockstar registered dietician again. I’m using food and supplements to build the microbiome, and digestive enzymes to help with the breaking down of food. I’m already noticing a big difference in my energy. This is gonna be a long term project, and I’ve looped my PCP into this as well. I’ve worked with Amanda since I moved to Austin, so we always have a good time, and she’s familiar with all my issues.

If you’re interested in seeing what your gut health is like, my link gets you 10% off. For me, the food stuff wasn’t new, but the enzymes & microbiome were definitely a shock. If you feel you’ve got gut issues, give it a go. You’ll get good somethings out of the 66 page report. All you have to do is send in a snip of your hair! It’s normally $95, but you get 10% off the current $38 price.

Final athletic event of 2023 – done!

My last athletic event of the year – Kerrville Sprint Aquabike – went really well. Swim was strong, and I felt better on the bike than I had at TriWaco & Mamma Jamma. Coulda been cuz I backed down on biking the week before (“taper”)?

I’m thinking next year will be a few Aquabike events again, and then… who knows.

Deeply Therapeutic

Please keep in mind I’m out Oct 30 – Nov 10, 2 full weeks. If you need bodywork in that time, please check out Greg – you already know the location (Austin studio!).

I got to test out his BEMER device on Knee #2 after Texas Mamma Jamma. It works on opening up the deep circulation of the area of focus, which brings more blood flow & more healing. I could definitely feel a difference for the next 24 hours, and recovery from that event was pretty quick!

You’re allowed to have a back up massage therapist in cases where your regular (me!) is out. Don’t have one? Give Greg a try, AND ask for $15 off your first session – let him know you’re one of my peeps. He’s in the office Mondays & Tuesdays, so please plan ahead.

your guide to everything under the moon, the Amber Moon, 9/11/23

Fall has a whole new meaning when you coach cross country! It means big meets until about 12n on Saturdays, way different than what we did up in Indiana. Yeah, we had big meets, but we also has small 2-3 school meets on weekdays. We practiced 5 days per week. These little athletes only get us 2 days a week, with a meet on Saturday. Of course, the majority are in more than 1 sport, so they’re still active, not just specifically running.

Oh the memories.

My little athletes asked me to run with them the other day. I had to explain why I couldn’t, showed them the right knee scar, how the left kneecap was off to the side. I’m sure they were just trying to get a longer break, but I had them run in between my answers. And the best Q: since your knee is metal, if you hit it does it go boinggggggg? That same practice, I also ended up coercing the other 2 coaches to run, as we were short on relay pairs.

One day, I’ll be running with them. Until then, I’m swimming & biking, and event #1 – Texas Mamma Jamma, is this weekend. And right here in Taylor! 15 miles on the bike. The left knee is starting to protest, so I’ll be backing my regular biking down to 45 min after this.

So what fun are YOU planning for this Fall (and by Fall, I mean under 100 degrees)? I’d love to hear.

Studio scheduling stuff

I’m starting to work on Nov & Dec schedules – I’ve reached out to some of you that are on my schedule, but not at a set time. I’ll be trying to settle this section of the schedule soon.

Texas Mamma Jamma update

That’s me! Biking thru the ages, with 2 good knees. Notice one thing? That smile of my face! Yeah, here I go again!

Deeply Therapeutic

I’ve finally got someone subletting my space in Austin – YAY!!! Greg moved here from Washington State. His specialty is deep tissue, so if you know anyone interested, please send them his way. He’s also got a BEMER device, and I’ll let you read more about that thru his website.

Whew. I think that’s it. Thanks for coming all the way down here!
