We generally wake up about 4:30 in the morning & this morning I just didn’t feel like getting out of bed and felt even less excited about exercising. I didn’t sleep well and I had a sore throat but . . . . I’ve been practicing yoga a couple of times a week for about 18 months because it really helps me but this morning I even wanted to opt out from that. I did, however, roll out my mat & chose a stretching / meditative practice. So glad I did. It didn’t take long & I started to loosen up and I just felt better. Pretty soon I’m good to go.

A couple of things I considered. If I should do something to take care of myself and I don’t I am letting myself down and second, not doing what I know I should early in the morning gets me off on the wrong foot for the day. I need to start out with a success. It changes my day.

BTW if you’re interested in yoga there is all kinds of stuff (free) available on the web. Go to youtube and search for 30 Days of Yoga by Adriane. Not hard core, just what I need.
