@takinitalloff , very well put! @hcoleman232 , awesome job - enjoy those grandkids - they grow up so fast! Closing the rings definitely takes a back seat. Good going on the poker face even though it’s not been tested to the full. ✔️ ✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️ ✔️ ✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️ ✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️ ✔️✔️✔️ Three Weeks of Greater Mindfulness…

@BodyTalking , I’m glad you’re feeling a little better. Getting things off the to-do list is a great way to improve your sleep. When we had plumbing work in February, I stuffed lots of things into my closet to keep them out of plaster dust. Every time I opened the closet, I was overwhelmed by the mess. Last week, I finally…

@takinitalloff, yes, the pup is learning to wait. But she’s also just getting used to my flapping about on the floor. It’s all part of her socialization. @snowshoe072 , I agree! I love to see the different types of challenges taken and goals being met. I’m glad this group is helping you,you all sure encourage me.…

@Interbeing , wow! That’s wonderful! Really impressive changes! I’m very proud of myself that I’ve got back to my yoga, only missing one day so far. I’m definitely reestablishing this important daily habit and training my puppy to let me do it. ✔️ ✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️ ✔️ ✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️ ✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️ Three Weeks of Greater…

@BodyTalking, ouch! So sorry you’re getting hit on both ends with pain! And a cold. You definitely need a vacation after your visit. Make that mindfulness for the rest of March be restorative! @snowshoe072, what a fabulous plan and terrific start to its implementation! Staying out of the kitchen is a good idea. Years ago,…

@takinitalloff , when I saw this post about overthinking, I thought of you. Sorry you had technical trouble trying to restart your course. @hcoleman232 , you’ve been working hard, so a “lazy” day also known as a rest day is part of keeping your fitness efforts sustainable. One thing I find a pain about automated trackers…

@hcoleman232 , I heartily approve of your reset break! That’s the problem with being retired, you can never take a day off. 🤣 Phooey! My busy day, I got in all my mindfulness practice, but the day after, I missed my yoga. Another busy day today. My sister and BIL come for supper, and then my sister and I will go dancing!…

@hcoleman232 , wowzers! You got in a hike in the middle of the week! And some good workouts too! Today was my husband’s birthday , so I was careful to get my stretching, yoga, and meditation in early while the rest of the family was still asleep. I also got in a strength workout before my daughter and granddaughters came…

@Interbeing , good job jumping right back on the healthy habits train. Conferences are difficult! My sister and I do CoCo (Costume College), and it really interferes with our workout routines, especially since they changed venues.
-
@snowshoe072 , that’s a great lunchtime walk! I’ll bet the Adirondacks are so beautiful in almost spring. I was also dodging puddles today, a band of 6 intrepid Curves ladies met at the park on a rainy morning and worked out together. ✔️ ✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️ ✔️ ✔️✔️✔️ One Week of Greater Mindfulness Done!

@takinitalloff , wow Supernaturally Calm! That’s high praise ! Clearly your breathing practice and Overthinking class are paying off. I’m glad that the family mess is moving to the rear view mirror. Cool that you started out at Curves too! Today the puppy had a bath, so there were plenty of shenanigans. ✔️ ✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️ ✔️…

@hcoleman232 , Wow! That’s a super day! ✔️ ✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️ ✔️ ✔️ I’m listening to a audio book titled The Lazy Genius Way and in it the author tells of how she developed her yoga habit by it small (like Tiny/Atomic).

@hcoleman232 , playing with little ones definitely counts as a workout. Maybe a double workout - cardio (running around) and strength (picking them up). I’m glad you enjoyed your evening plans and the littles! I’ve been really busy and active this week, so I’m looking forward to a total rest day tomorrow!

@hcoleman232 , bravo on closing those rings and keeping that poker face! @pamelaory , that’s great that you’ve hit that daily goal. A 12 day exercise streak is impressive ! Enjoy that visit with your son! @TerriRichardson112, it looks like you’re exceeding your goal on that hit. Nice job transition to the new Rich Editor…

✔️ ✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️ March 1 - stretch, yoga, meditation 🙂 March 2 - lovely walk, taking pictures of early spring blooms, and I did a yoga routine and just let my puppy get used to me being on the floor. I did get a face full of dog toy, but it was soft, so not too bad. 🤣 I’m sure the pictures would have been hilarious. But I got…

@snowshoe072 , that’s so impressive that you’re ready to switch from snowshoeing to preparing for a 5K.

@hcoleman232 , good job closing those rings! Nice you have time to practice your poker face.

@TerriRichardson112, I attended a lecture by one of the coaches at the college where I worked and he was encouraging college instructors to do short HIIT workouts to avoid being sedentary, so he would definitely approve of your plan. Wow! You were way ahead of the curve starting yoga in your twenties. That was back before…

Great goal @TerriRichardson112 ! That HIIT habit will really support your maintenance.

@hcoleman232 , oh that poker face goal sounds like a hard one! Hmm, Let it Pass sounds like a good thing to think of to help you keep those facial expressions from registering your thoughts. And sticking with the fabulous fitness goals sounds terrific. @takinitalloff , those are some deep ideas! It made me think of the…

@Interbeing , great set of goals. And those small achievable steps sound fantastic. Remember to celebrate every day you hit your fiber goal and every week you stay under your red meat goal. How often do you check your cholesterol?

@pamelaory , Welcome to the group ! That’s a great goal! And I love that you’ve made the habit tiny! Go for 5 minutes and hope for more. I actually have a 5 minute walk in my daily reminders, Be sure to celebrate every time you hit that goal ! Oh my! Do you belong to Curves? That’s where I started my fitness journey ! I…

@snowshoe072 , good for you starting the day mindfully, sounds like you already have a strong habit established! 👏. Snowshoeing definitely counts as a good walking workout. I can’t even imagine!

March 1 - I got in a brief neck and shoulders stretching routine this morning. Mindfulness for the win. Maybe some yoga a meditation later today.

@hcoleman232 , way to finish fabulous February with a win! 🏆 bravo 🙌
