Welcome to Readers’ Workouts, the weekly event where book lovers share workout stories, goals, successes, and challenges.
For two mornings in a row, I did ten minutes of yoga, first thing. Two days doesn’t make for a habit, but I hope if I blog about it that I’ll make it a few more days and maybe it will turn into a habit. So far, the yoga, itself, hasn’t been the reward.
My first reward is that when I do sit down at my desk, I’m much more willing to write in my journal instead of diving into Facebook. My days go much better when I don’t get sucked into Facebook right at the beginning.
My second reward has been a greater willingness to take a walk at 11am. I love my normal walk time in the late afternoon, but it’s been in the upper 90s by that time of the day. I’m much better off, right now, if I take the walk early.
How is your exercise going? Is summer heat having an impact?
I’m happy to hear the yoga is working out for you. Yes, summer is definitely impacting our ability to get outside. So hot and so many storms this time of year. C’mon fall!
I can’t do anything first thing in the morning. I’m one of those people who sleeps as late as possible and then has to rush to get out of the door in time for work.
