🚶🏾‍♀️About yesterday.

Post monsoon season here in the beautiful State of AZ. Had an itch to get outside and just go for a walk. Equipped with my AirPods and enjoying my view. I just used this time to just embrace my surroundings.
.
.
I didn’t worry about the dishes I still needed to clean, the laundry I needed to wash, or anything that was going to keep me from enjoying this moment. Because, there will ALWAYS be something that needs to get done, but you have to CHOOSE to make time for yourself whether it’s for your mind, your body, or your soul.
.
.
For the last three months of 2018, I’m doing more of the things that I really enjoy doing. Some I’ll post and share. Some, I won’t.
.
.
Some, are simple as just painting my nails. Because one, I’ve always enjoyed doing that and two, because I have so many that I’ve never opened. Which I find to be absolutely ridiculous and it’s time to change that.
.
.
.
Another, I have three books I’m going to read. One book a month. Simple enough. I’m not going to be “so busy” to stop doing the things I love. There is ALWAYS work to do, but when do we stop ourselves and truly get off the hamster wheel?
.
.
I hope today, you make the time to do the things you love.

Happy Sassy Sunday Honeybees! 🍯🐝

Until next time,

Hi Honey Bees,

Happy Sassy Sunday!

I am combining week three and week four of my 5k training into one post. I hope you do not mind. Ever feel like life just gets away from you? Or if feels as though there is not enough time in the day?

I hope I am not alone in the feeling. Life is a balancing act and I have not been juggling it very well.

On a positive note, I am finally running 2.5 miles. I am working on my speed more than anything. Building up my leg and core strength. Consistently drinking a gallon of water daily. Craving carbs, like crazy.

I am keeping my warmups to about five minutes to focus my intent for my workout and work on my breathing.

I am enjoying the endorphins I am feeling after my run. Feels good to move.

This week I am experiencing spring fever. I am aggressively editing my life in regards to things, eating, and people. I am taking this time to streamline my habits to be a lot more simple.

I hope this week, you make time for the things and people that truly matter.

Until next time,

Happy Sassy Sunday Honey Bees!

This week I was not as tired during my workouts. I also was not as sore, which was a relief.

Tuesday: Legs – Treadmill – 16 minutes
Wednesday: chest & back – stair master
Thursday: biceps, triceps, shoulders – treadmill –  19 minutes
Saturday: 2 miles – outside

Week three will finish out the remainder of March.

I have to be honest, some days are a struggle for me to get to the gym.That is why I pack my bag the night before or in the morning and place it in my car. After work, I head to the gym. This is the only method that works for me. I have tried coming home, then changing into workout clothes, and easily start doing ANYTHING other than getting back into my car to go workout.

Find out what works for you. Maybe you are an early birdie and like to leave your evenings to other activities. An early morning sweat is best if this fits your lifestyle.

The days when my energy is low, I remind myself how much better I will feel after my workout. It helps my mind as much as it helps my body.

Make time for yourself this week. Even if it is ten minutes a day to take a break from everyday hustle and just be PRESENT. Take a breath and just be in the moment.

Until next time,

Hi Honey Bees!
