<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.choose2be.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Justine-Michaux-4.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1153 alignright" src="http://www.choose2be.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Justine-Michaux-4-300x300.jpg" alt="Justine" width="300" height="300" /></a>I want to feature people like Justine who have crossed my path and touched my life, inspiring me toward greatness. Too many of us fail to see greatness in ourselves. Somehow, it doesn’t seem to matter what we have achieved; we often need others to point out to us how we excel. People display “greatness” by their attitude, their lifestyle, their choices, their actions… I want to recognize the people in my life who lead by example.</p>

<h3 class="widget-title" style="text-align: center;">How did I meet Justine?</h3>
<p class="p1" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="s1"><a href="http://www.choose2be.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Justine-Michaux.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1155 alignright" src="http://www.choose2be.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Justine-Michaux-240x300.jpg" alt="Justine" width="240" height="300" /></a>I've met Justine at Om Town Yoga and we became friend on social media. I admire her lifestyle and openness to try everything. She comes across to me as a happy, contented, balanced person. So many people limit themselves and forget to live their life to their full potential. Justine you are such a rockstar in my world even if I don't know you very well yet. Keep shining!</span></p>
<strong>What motivates you to exercise?</strong>
Usually it’s the knowledge that I feel good when I’m doing something every day, and that by using energy I will create more energy.  Once in a while I have a low day and it’s strictly to “get ‘er done”.   Thankfully those days are rare.

<strong>What activity/workout do you prefer?</strong>
<a href="http://www.choose2be.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Justine-Michaux-3.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1152 alignright" src="http://www.choose2be.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Justine-Michaux-3-300x300.jpg" alt="Justine" width="300" height="300" /></a>I love yoga for the mind/body connection, strength and community.  I balance that with something outside like a run, hike or bike ride to counteract being inside all day.  Although recently I’ve tried a class with weights in a gym and that’s been super fun.

<strong>What is your biggest accomplishment?</strong>
Nothing big, just a series of small ones.   First 10 km run.  First time in Crow Pose.  First time up Mount Benson.  22 pushups for 22 days.

<strong>What is your superpower?</strong>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">I’m usually able to keep a light heart, often worn on my sleeve :)</span></p>
<strong>What is your favourite cheat treat?</strong>
That’s easy:  Friday night ritual with pizza (from scratch, homemade crust) made by my son Owen + glass of something alcoholic + a chocolate bar.   Best end of the week dinner.

<strong>What is your favourite dish/recipe?</strong>
Glory Bowls:  <a href="http://whitewatercooks.com/portfolio_page/glory-bowl/"><span class="s2">http://whitewatercooks.com/portfolio_page/glory-bowl/</span></a>  grain + leaf + veg + protein + dressing.  Favourite lunch.

<strong>What are your goals and dreams?</strong>

<strong>Advice for a newbie?</strong>
Find something you like to do, not just what you think you should do, because when you like it it’s sustainable.  That, and treat yourself to decent gear. Ditch the old sports bras.
