Back to My Origins

I am standing right now in the living room of the house I grew up in. It is my first trip to Brazil in 5 years! It doesn’t matter how long I stay away from my childhood home, every time I came here, it seems I’ve never left.
The great thing besides seeing my family, is the opportunity to bring my teenager daughter with me. I want her to be proud of her Mom’s humble but delightful beginnings.
We arrived here yesterday and we were welcomed by 6 members of my family. Some of them took the day off work, a second car was brought so we could accomodate our luggages, etc. It was humbling and sweet to see all the steps created so Juliana and I could be picked up from the airport.
We had a sweet time enjoying ourselves and eating my Mom’s delicious foods.
I have to watch myself!

After a long day yesterday, today I started it fresh with a workout that brought me back to my beginnings in fitness. I’ve been workout at home with DVDs for a long time (since the late 80’s), but it was in 2005 that I found a program that changed my life:. Turbo Jam!

I remember how I felt after doing Turbo Jam for the first time and this morning, doing this program in my childhood home, brought me back that same feeling.

I am so glad I could make my decision quickly. I didn’t need to bring all my DVDs because I can access everything online. Thanks to Beachbody on Demand, that since it started in March 2015,  I was able to make my trip home and be able to access the entire Beachbody Iibrary through my computer, phone, or tablet.

What a great way to start my 6 weeks stay in Brazil.
