“What I like about both fitness, when
you do it right, and the embroidery, is
it kind of simultaneously gets you into
your head but out of your thoughts,” she
said. “It requires a lot of focus and a lot
of attention, both of them. You can’t let
yourself get distracted; you have to stay
present.”
She said that becoming so focused
on each of these activities, “it lets
every unnecessary thought fade to the
background; every worry about what
am I going to do for dinner, when am I
going to get coffee next, what’s going on
tomorrow, stress about Amazon moving
in, stress about rent, about bills — it lets
all that, for a couple of hours, fade to the
background and I can really strongly focus
on being present.”
The holiday season is a particularly
busy time for Klugh, as many people
are interested in gifting their loved ones
a handcrafted image of their pet or a
private session of yoga or Pilates, but she
is always looking for more clients.
“I definitely don’t like to be doing only
one thing,” she said.
There is still some time before the
holiday season comes to a close, so
consider reaching out to Klugh; she will
happily help you give the perfect gift.
As she said, “If you want personal
training or a pet portrait, call me.”
Or hey — why not both?
