I recently asked (on Instagram @deannelovexo),  “How has hooping changed you?”

 

I expected answers like “I have more energy” or “I feel stronger” But the responses were much more powerful and heartfelt.

 

Hoopers from all over the world were sharing stories of complete transformation. Many talked about overcoming pain; both physical and emotional. There were stories of career change, soaring self-confidence, new friendships and more creativity.

 

Some hoopers even declared a hula hoop saved their life!

 

I resonated in many ways with every one of the comments shared, from the light-hearted to the deeply painful.

The stories shared inspired me, so here are just 10 ways a hula hoop has changed my life. I would love to hear your hoop story. You can share it with the Hooplovers community below in the comments.
