Okay, so I could definitely be better at writing more this month, but I think this is better than I have been doing! haha. Any who. Didn't get much interest in people doing the July challenge with me. If you didn't see the challenge, read my previous post here. I know it's already about half-way through the month, but if you want to jump in and join me, please do!
Now as for my update on how I've been doing. I have successfully worked out every single day so far! I have done at least five minutes of yoga every single day, even if it's just a little to unwind and stretch before I go to bed. Some days I got in exercise just by walking a LOT-even just for shopping or what not. We went to Park City over 4th of July weekend to hit the outlet sales and we walked for miles, so I definitely counted that as my exercise for the day.
This is a pretty short post, but sometimes that's all you can do. Here's my little slowly healthy tidbit for the day, though. I mentioned that I have been doing yoga/stretching before going to bed. It is AMAZING the improvement it has made! I fall asleep more easily, I sleep better, and I feel better in the morning. Seriously, try stretching a little bit before going to bed. It feels amazing. And it's good for your body. A few of my favorite yoga poses before bed are the downward dog, uttanasana, and happy baby. If these don't gel with you, try something else, but try doing a little stretching before bed. It really does help in so many ways! Taking those few minutes to stretch, relax, and unwind really help you to relax and get you in the mindset for sleep, which we can all use, right?
