Our Newly Certified Tribal LifeGuard Shel!..."who 2 years ago could not swim across the pool without major shoulder pain."
Me warming up with 5 laps of gratitude!
Before i started......visualizing and breathing.
Alternate nostril breathing to reset myself.
Going down to 11 feet to get the brick.
You'll notice my hands holding the brick so the 25 meter trip to the pool's edge must be done with my legs and WF Chi.
Reaching out to test where i am so i don't collide with the lane markers.
Coming in to the pool's edge and starting to prepare for my landing.
Notice when i put the brick on the edge which will signify the end of the test i am using my non-dominant hand!
The certifying guard and one heck of a very Happy ss.

Thank you so much Coach for all your help and support. I do not quit. I challenged my fears, built up the lung and leg strength i was lacking, and worked on my technique. When i was carrying the brick that 25 meters i kept visualizing that it was YOU i was saving. After trekking me up and down mountains, on foot and on bike, and getting me up and down the climbing walls it's the least i could do for you !! No way was i not going to get you out of that pool alive...
Life is g(o)od when you go for it !
love from this fifty something WF Warrioress who 2 years ago could not swim across the pool without major shoulder pain. Long live Yoga, Sunrider Herbs and WF----
i Salute the Extraordinary Teachings of one very humble Coach
