Okay so yesterday I did not join the gym BUT I did work out for a thirty minute cardio gig with Exercise TV. I strongly recommend that if you have On Demand through your cable and if not you can find them on the Internet. There are FREE workouts and you can download your favorites for not much money. It is really great to have them right on your lap top when all else fails....
I am going to head over to the new gym today and get signed up and yes work out :). I really want to have a gym close to home here and one where I work...I know that may seem selfish but I easily spend 60 dollars on a dinner out with Bob (adding to my fat legs and butt) so to spend 40 a month seems pretty much a no "brainer". Several of you have agreed you also want to do this (for our health and emotional well being) and okay to fit into those favorite jeans. GREAT! I love that we are together. Off to finish my blogs and then to gym. Yippee.

I feel fit when I do yoga and go for walks or hikes several times a week. Yoga has taught me a number of ways to stay centered. I don't really ever feel uncentered. If I am frazzled or tired, that is part of being alive. My main intention is to live in the present moment rather than dwell upon the past or fantasize about the future, whether in a positive way or a negative way. It's an intention, not something that I am mindful of constantly! That's okay, too. Yoga has taught me that the irregularities, the craziness, the off-balances as well as the balances, are part of life and something to accept. Hobbies -- I'm with you, Deb, about obligations. I have to really like something to show up week after week to do it. I have a few activities that I do regularly (yoga, violin, walking, cooking) because I love doing them. They are part of my everyday existence. I don't think of them as hobbies. I'm such a snob!
ReplyDeleteYou are a funny snob and a good mentor. I believe you are one of my favorite Yoga folks! I value your ability to stay true to your intention!
