0:00.0 | Hey everyone it's Christy, Dr Finlays and Fice assistant and I am really excited about today's episode. |
0:13.0 | To give you an idea why, I wanted to share with you how I first met Lindsay Taylor, |
0:17.0 | today's podcast host. |
0:18.0 | So back in early 2010, I found myself in a kind of dark place. I had three young children all under the age of five. |
0:26.2 | None of them were yet in school and my family had just moved across the country from Austin, Texas to Lehigh, Utah, and I was living in a dark and mouse-infested basement. |
0:35.8 | I was feeling lonely, overwhelmed, and just really missing the life that I had built here in Texas, |
0:41.9 | and being in the cold Utah winter in a dark basement I could |
0:45.2 | feel myself falling into a bit of a depressive period. So one day I decided to sign up |
0:51.0 | for the local gym which was offering two free hours of child care every single day. |
0:55.5 | I had no intention of working out. I signed up for the gym solely for the child care so that I could have a few minutes to myself each day to read, shower, whatever, but zero intention of actually working out. |
1:07.0 | About two months into my membership, I walked past a group fitness room and I heard some good music coming out, so I decided to just pop my head in and see what was going on. I walk in and it's a dance class. |
1:18.0 | Okay, I am not a dancer. I have no business being in a dance class and so I was very tempted to turn around and |
1:24.3 | walk right back out but the moment I walked into that class I could feel the enthusiasm I could |
1:30.0 | see the smiles and I thought okay I may as well just stay and see what this is all about and the next 50 minutes were incredible because for those 50 minutes I was not thinking about the mice in my basement. I was not feeling overwhelmed. |
1:44.0 | For 50 minutes I was focused solely on just not looking like an idiot in front of all those people in that class and |
1:49.6 | it was such a welcome relief to my mind and it was so crazy because I walked out of that class I took about 10 steps and I felt the |
1:57.5 | weight of everything settle right back on my shoulders and I just thought I have got to get back to that class. So that class that I just |
2:04.8 | happened to pop into was a class that Lindsay was teaching. And during the next five years her |
2:09.5 | classroom became a sanctuary to me. During those intensive years of young motherhood, it was the perfect |
2:14.5 | place for me to go and to just have fun, to relax and move my body and to not be so worried |
2:21.0 | about all that was going on in the world, in my life, in my family. |
2:24.8 | I loved those classes. |
