I didn’t always feel this strong

I didn’t always feel this strong in my body or in my spirit. In my 20s, I had yet another blood sugar crash and then, the next day, I couldn’t pick up my harp to put it in my car. That was when I knew I had to do something different. It took many years to love and fuel my body appropriately. It took even longer to embrace strength and to know that it is key to a successful future as a performing artist. It is only now, at age 40, that I can wake up after a night of hard gigging and not feel like I’ve been hit by a bus. Adequate fuel and consistent movement take effort but they are worth it for a long and fruitful future.
