Man, this time change is killing me! Plus, I just started my Hello Morning challenge today as well. Not sure it was the wisest challenge to start when my kids' sleep is all crazy but I committed so I'm sticking it out. But, I made it through our crazy day, actually got a good amount of tasks accomplished, and I just finished Day 5!
Let me be honest. I did not want to do Day 5 tonight. I'm extra tired because I woke up at 6am (so my body felt like it was 5am) and my kids didn't really nap so I've been "on" since about 6:30 this morning and then they didn't go to sleep until 8pm, which is an hour LATER than the typically do . . . They cut an hour off of my "me" time. Yoga typically starts for me at 7pm, I get done by 7:30, shower, and I'm back downstairs for my "me" time by 8pm. But, it's already 8:30 here. So. Tonight I was trying to come up with an excuse in my head. There were plenty. But actually, what kept resonating more loudly than the rest was that I have been feeling GOOD! I feel really good about my body right now. I'm sore, which always takes me by surprise because I don't feel like I'm working hard during yoga. Maybe I'm just that weak . . . But I'm sore and my muscles are tighter and beyond that, I'm just feeling good because that's what yoga does for your body! And mind, actually.
So, I threw out my yoga mat, hit play, and thanked God when I saw that Day 5 was a whole 15 minutes long. There's really no excuse for a 15 minute practice.
Today's title was Day 5 - Feel Alive Flow and I really enjoyed this little flow. I mean, it definitely was short but I think we went through about three vinyasas along with Warrior II, Peaceful Warrior, and Triangle Pose. And we got back to boat ab poses at the end. It was enough to make me shake at times or just get to that point of my brain starting to ask "when are we going to that next pose?" so I thought it was nice.
Tomorrow is abs. There's a slight (okay, very large) chance that I'll be skipping tomorrow as I devote every possible minute of my evening to finding out who Chris chooses as his bride-to-be. Will it be Whitney or Becca?? It better be Whitney or I'm jumping through the tv. Seriously.
Okay, enough Bachelor talk. Until tomorrow (or probably Wednesday). :)
