World Diabetes Day Celebration

Today is a day of celebration. It’s world diabetes day but also it’s my mom’s 70th birthday. I want to invite everyone who has diabetes, at least for today, to celebrate diabetes. Think about how a diagnosis has molded and shaped you into the incredible being that you are!

It’s true, diabetes is no picnic but that does not mean that it all has to be negative. 

If it weren’t for diabetes I would not be:

• Half as strong as I am
• As aware and in-tune with myself
• As Compassionate as I am to other people’s pain
• A Yogi and teacher

Thank you diabetes for offering me an opportunity to see you in a positive or negative light.

My gift you you is a yoga therapy practice for the heart and circulation. Heart disease is the number one killer of people with diabetes. It is of the utmost importance that we not only take care of our heart with diet and exercise but also through therapeutic practices like this one. 

Please leave your comments below! How has diabetes made you the person you are today? What can you celebrate?
