Just Gotta LOL at a Saturday morning like this I guess... A Few Sleepy Reflections for the Blockchain

Yawns and chugging green tea and or coffee? Yeah me too. Rough sleeps but I’m hoping to make the most of the day. I’m only now realizing that even though it’s warmer than it’s been in awhile, I have way less motivation to get out on the mat because at the moment, the sun is nowhere in sight.

If you were wondering, the title in my cover image comes from this lovely Andrew Bird Song

Meanwhile I’ll have below freezing temperatures to practice in a little slice of light. Odd, I’ve never noticed that until now. In the states, my practices were mostly inside, and I’d practice every day, so the daily weather situation had less of an effect on me in that way.

On the food front @teamhumble and I are in our 3rd day of a high-fiber healthy but bacteria eating plan and I’m feeling pretty good, I think he is too. Again, I could always use more sleep, (or maybe I should say, more consistent good sleeps) but an Amazon shipment of ear plugs combined with the eye mask I use when flying should help with a lot of that.

After a brief chat about it, we’re thinking of trying out best to stick with Monday swimming, then 3 days of high-fiber, greens, soups and smoothies on Tuesday through Thursdays as those as our big hustle work days days (and usually our most sedentary ones) and then we have Friday - Sunday to be a bit more flexible.

get it with that juice life mouuseeee!!

Speaking of flexibility, although we do do a considerable amount of walking when we’re out and about, I really want to make an effort to get more yoga in. Keeping limber is key for me to stay out of back hip and neck pain so I’m going to try to do AT LEAST 10 minutes a day on the bad weather days, and then do fuller deeper practices when I can, instead of skipping days all together.

I’m tired but feeling optimistic, I know that a lot of little changes add up fast, and if we can keep it up, I know it’ll have a huge improvement physically, focus-wise and overall wellness wise!

I imagine that by mid February most folks are giving up or at least starting to slip on their New Years Resolution, leave it to two TimeLords to not even begin thinking about those kind of changes until about 6 weeks into the new year.

That being said I think it’s important to make changes because you want to, not because of some time frame hype or social pressure, those are the changes that will stick with you, and you won’t feel trapped by.

Speaking of change and goal momentum, I took a look at my little monthly checklist, and I’m so pleased with the amount I’ve managed to check off so far!- I’m rrreeeally close to another 3 checks, and they might all happen this week so that’s made me really encouraged as well. I have a little over one more week at age 29… so time is a-tickin, as it always does, and will continue to do… Time the Avenger eh?

I hope you’re having a lovely Saturday morning with a hot beverage snuggled up someplace warm and cozy.

Ooh also! I’m going to do my best to show you some of the awesomeness from our Valentines Day brewery tour, so look out for that post later today. I spent the bus trip into town editing photos for it and I’m so stoked to share!
