The Amazing people at Bright Beginnings invited us to their Health and Fitness expo which turned out to be a great experience. Toast2Fitness along with Deanna Jefferson’s (MyFitnessBootcamp.com) demonstrated a good array of exercises that individuals can perform at their residence with great benefits. Everybody had fun while exercising and there were alot of smiles in the building. From older adults down to the little ones participation was high. Their were also nutritionists in the building along with Health and Wellness advocates, as seen with my former Howard University professor (Deneen Long-White).
We all recognize that fitness is a beneficial part of life but without the knowledge on how to go about it, it can be a struggle.
As stated on their site , some info on Bright Beginnings:
“Families with young children are among the fastest growing segments of the homeless population in Washington, DC.

Sometimes mental burdens can transpire into a physical one, you just got to let go at times
Set little goals for yourself, get accustomed to a new way of living
Get your mind right first, then your body will follow!
You can create a workout routine out of your environment (Never say you can't exercise anywhere)
Be responsible for your actions and don't blame anyone else, you'll have less stress and procrastinate less
Buy that t-shirt, pants, or swim suit that you want to fit in (realistically) AIM for that goal!
Higher Intensity > Length of workout
Slowly reacquaint yourself with the gym! or you will scare yourself off
Ellipticals are effective but also easy on the joints
"Fitness needs to be perceived as fun and games or we subconsciously avoid it."
"As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them."
The difference between the impossible and possible lies in not giving up.”
I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.
"Sell yourself short on nutrition and you're selling yourself short on maximizing your physique development."
Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close theywere to success when they gave up.
Every day do something that will inch you closer to a better tomorrow.
Those who do not find time for exercise will have to find time for illness.
"No matter who you are, no matter what you do, you absolutely, positively do have the power to change."
Let your soul be your guidance, its the one thing not controlled by your body
Money is the most envied, but the least enjoyed. Health is the most enjoyed, but the least envied
Success is a journey, not a destination.
The smallest decision in life can cause the biggest impact on it.
Where u see triumph, there was first failure".... As that child begins to walk he stumbles.. No matter what get back up this week!
Don't follow everybody elses Path... Go where there's no path and leave crumbs so the others can follow ur Trail
Don't only exercise ur body exercise ur mind...
Rise and Prosper.... give just as much as u take.... be real as much as the others are fake.....
Movement is a medicine for creating change in a person's physical, emotional, and mental states. ~Carol Welch
