Day one:
This may be called day one but it really is day two going
back to talk about my day one. That makes sense, right? J Well, you know what I
mean.
So far it’s easy going. I don’t want to go too fast or hard,
not that I am lazy, but I need to move slow to adjust to a new routine. Let’s
not just up and change your life overnight. No. That ain’t happening. I still
want to text my friends and family, call people, play games, be on social
medias, read, WRITE, and manage the home. . . Okay, most of these things
probably could be managed a bit better and shortened time wise and honestly, by
the sounds of my life, it does feel like I could use more movement. So this is
what I decided. YOGA!
No, laughing. I’m serious. Yoga. I know some people might say start with
adjusting your diet but I can’t do it. I don’t even eat like a regular person
so managing my meals is too daunting of a task. I don’t feel in control of it.
So I figure the easiest thing I can do is add an hour of Yoga into my mourning
routine.
The great thing about Yoga, that I have heard and read, is
that it helps to reduce stress, helps with sleep, regulates breathing, helps
you to become healthier, and I also read it was good for your sex life. No
joke. So if you’re in a slump sexually and are overall stressed, this should do
the trick. Wink. Wink.
So now my schedule looks like this: wake up before eight,
have coffee and a small snack and then by nine I am ready to do yoga. Granted,
I look kind of funny doing yoga and trying not to fall over, but oddly enough
it is soothingly and kind of energizing.
I will let you know more about how I am doing in Yoga next
time.
