Always enjoying your blog. Boy, I need to go to a ballet one time. That looks like fun! I seem to STILL be lost on the reason the chai latte is the source of hell breaking loose on earth. The caffeine? That might make a person jumpy for the first week or so, but don't our bodies get used to the caffeine after a little while? The sugar? Same as above, maybe, but if the latte has some protein in it, it would mitigate blood-sugar levels going up too to high and crashing...? The calories? Around 200 doesn't seem like too many to build into a daily plan (as compared to, say a piece of cheesecake every day). I have at least 200 calories worth of junk per day. I don't like it so much that I eat a little junk but the rest of my diet is quite healthy. The cost! These must be expensive. Now there's a good reason to quit. The idea that something has a hold - the "addicted" feeling. There's a good reason too. It's not fun feeling a slave to the body. I dunno Haley...it might be tough to boot this ritual out of your life until you're able to get 7 hours of sleep on a regular basis. (Easy for me to say b/c I have no kids yet.) I somehow get the feeling that the reason you want to sleep so much is because you could just really use the rest. I might also be talking out of my butt. Please ignore if this is of no value to you. :0) I just care, is all. Hi!

Bravery. You have MUCH bravery. Ravi Singh says that no matter how many times a change has NOT taken that you have to keep trying, because THIS time may be THE time. Isn't that wonderful?! :) You know that right now I am going through massive change with dance. A big key for me is to watch dance, read about dance, feel myself involved in the world of dance. It makes me feel supported by the larger community and that makes me more accountable to myself! Ballet affected you SO deeply!? Then you MUST watch it more, do it more! There are great ballet workout DVD's -- the one by Elements is wonderful. And there is a documentary that you must see -- Ballerinas, about 5 russian ballerinas who are all so different, not cookie cutter. My point: put these good things in to your brain and body and perhaps, just maybe, they can replace the chai -- or fill the actual, real need that the chai is a replacement for. :) Oh, Haley, as long as you keep trying.
