Hello loves,Often our idea of what something is supposed to look like gets in the way of our actually doing it. When in doubt, lower the bar. Do a workout in your pjs or even just hold a plank while your shower warms up. Order pizza if cooking feels out of reach, but maybe make a quick salad on the side. Drink an extra glass of water with your margarita. Use a make up wipe if you’re too tired to wash your face. Take some mindful deep breaths at a stoplight or stretch on a foam roller while you watch tv. (These are all things I have done in the last week). It all still counts, and making progress today—no matter how incremental—will get you farther than starting next week with your perfect plan. More importantly, it will make you feel good faster. It moves these behaviors from something we know we should (or shouldn’t) do to an actual feeling we get to have. More energy, satisfaction, calm. This is the way. You might still choose what feels easier right now, but you won’t know unless you try. Speaking of trying, how about my free group!
