Today’s Prompt: Check-in and let us know how the physical level is going for you.
I tried an Orangetheory fitness class tonight. It was pretty challenging and I loved it! I would’ve never tried it 6 months ago. I would’ve been too self-conscious and scared of other people judging me etc etc.. But honestly when all the fears and judgements were coming up today and right up until the class started I was able to keep telling myself to just stay neutral. To try the class and see if I like it, and no matter what happens I don’t have to judge it or myself as good or bad. It was just another experience. I just happened to really like this one. 🙂
Look at your growth, incredible. You completely owned this process. It’s not about there being no fears or judgments, it’s about you not letting yourself be run by them. Way to go! And truth be told, the more neutral you stay to those thoughts and feelings, the less they will start to present themselves. So awesome to hear your experience.
I am finally getting back to physical exercise. I did a 40 minute walk/jog at Shelter Island last evening. It felt so good. I am really hoping to train for the Hero’s in Recovery 6K that is here in San Diego on November 18th. I am hoping to find a good fitness class soon. I do very well in groups once I get started.
All great steps!
I have been walking quite a bit more. Last week I walked 5 times and went to yoga three times. I am noticing a huge difference in my energy. I walked with hubby once. I do, however, love to put the ear buds in and get lost in my music. I am doing a 5K walk for work on September 9th, so looking forward to that. That and eating really well. Okay – a few treats here and there, but overall choosing good, nourishing food. Loved this topic!
