Summer post and publicising my new Youtube channel!

-
Hi guys

Sorry for not posting for a while, I have been trying to think about different things to post. I have started the summer holidays starting up a Youtube account in which I post footage of therapy, I am doing mostly videoing gym and yoga. I must admit its hard work trying to think of what to film but I am finding it much easier than blogging, as I can just film what I'm doing rather than trying to type up the things I am doing. But I will try to still post some typed blogs too!

Now I've finished Sixth Form, I am trying to keep myself very busy by still working hard at the gym and at yoga. The past couple of weeks I have had a big jump in my therapy, the things I have struggled to do for ages and finding things easier and easier to do. I have come so far in the past couple of weeks, I try to not have a big break from gym or yoga as I can see a huge change in myself when doing regular exercise.

I have been enjoying doing what I want however I have been trying to keep a structure in my day and week so I keep active and busy, as I hate becoming bored. When I'm bored I start to think about things and start to worry about things that haven't even happened yet and I start to panic about what will happen next. However I try to focus on what I am doing at that moment and this stops me thinking about the things I shouldn't be worrying about, just thinking about what I need to do each day, helps me to stop worrying  about things that not even happened yet! I bet people will back me up here but I believe in this saying "Yesterdays is in the past you can't change what you did and tomorrow is in the future, what you do today is the most important" Meaning don't dwell on the past and don't worry about the future. I believe you should live for the moment and whatever happens next is in the future, just let it happen. I just try to enjoy each and every day and stop getting myself worked up over something that haven't happened yet.

 I just wanted to add before I finish this blog, I have mentioned it already in this blog but I would much appreciate if people would check out my new Youtube channel in which I have started to put some videos on about the gym and yoga. I would really like if people would go over and watch some of my videos. Here is the link to the youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiB3FxpA08Sw6DsazVl6Lxw. I would be thankful if people would check it out.

Thank you for reading

Get Over Yourself ... We're Only Disabled! Part 1

  Get Over Yourself ... We're Only Disabled  Hey my lovely readers... Hope you are well. As some of you may know, I wrote a book a few years ago however, I couldn't get my head around getting it published so I thought long and hard about how to share it with you all. Therefore, I thought about sharing one chapter a week on my blog, so this week I will publish the "All About Me" and the first chapter.   This was written in 2018, so some of details may not correspond to what you know of me today. All about me: Abbie Smart Hi, my name is Abbie Smart.  I was diagnosed with quadriplegic Cerebral Palsy at the age of one, after I had a fit when I was born.  It was recognised because I wasn’t reaching my milestones, such as crawling, walking at all or talking as well as I should have been.  I am a wheelchair user and I use a walker.  I drive my own wheelchair and have done since I was 6 or 7 years old.  I attended mainstream primary and secondary school and have achieved 5 G

  A Year Of Adaptive CrossFit  Hi my lovely readers, I hope you are well.  I know I have done a blog like this before, but I realised that I have been attending my adaptive CrossFit class for a year now, so I thought about doing a blog post about how I am finding it.    I can't  believe it has been a year already, it has a gone so quickly, I have the best time in the sessions and achieved so much in a short space of time, it has been incredible.     Over the past year, I have loved going to the adapted classes, I have enjoyed meeting new people with a wide range of disabilities that have become very good friends. Also I have been able to become stronger in my workouts and been able to achieve things that I felt that it wouldn't have been possible, for example, trying out my friends Rollator. This was one my many highlights of the year ! All of the sessions has made me feel stronger and more mobile. It has helped me to branch out socially with people with a wide range of disabil

My Time With Whizz-Kidz

           My Time With Whizz-Kidz Hi, my lovely  readers, hope you are well.   After my 26th birthday, I moved on from a wonderful charity that  supports children and young people called  Whizz-Kidz, as  I  have grown out of their  age bracket.  However I couldn’t finish this amazing charity without writing a blog about how great my experience has been over the years and talk about the fantastic support I have been given over the years from the start, whether this is support with equipment or help with work placements.   I have absolutely loved working the staff and meeting lots of people with similar disabilities as me, as well as learning about different disabilities along the way.  When I think back on what I have achieved during my time at Whizz-Kidz, I think of the successful work placements which I did face-to-face or online via Zoom. Especially when we were in lockdown, Whizz-Kidz kept me very busy either with a work placement which I completed online, or with a intriguing club
