Left work early because of the potential for a snow storm. Could get up to 12". Since I had some extra time and since I didn't practice a new pose yesterday I decided to do two poses. The first (not pictured) was the staff pose. While it looked easy, I could really tell it was working all parts of my body, especially my core, very engaging. The second was plank pose. This is something I've done with workouts before, but now I finally figured out how to do it correctly. I still need to work on form a bit, but I'm happy with the results thus far. Here's hoping (now that I'm home, we get all of the snow!!)
I did some yoga, practiced my mountain pose a bit, and woke up without hitting snooze. It still feels good to wake up early and have time and not feel rushed. I also have continued my daily flossing! Woot!
Today I have already completed my no snooze goal and hopefully will feel good enough to do some yoga later.
We are in for a huge snowstorm today, so our office will probably close early and will hopefully have a snow day tomorrow! As much as I hate the snow, I love snow days. So here is hoping.
I did decide to take away the goal of 8 glasses of water a day. I found that I don't want to overwhelm myself with too many small goals. Hopefully I will put it on the agenda for next month, that doesn't mean I'm not going to drink water, it just means I am not going to keep track of it as much.
Anyways, here is too the magical journey! Have a magical day everyone :)
Just got done practicing yoga after a very interesting day at work. I am currently going through the yoga with Adriene, foundations of yoga playlist on Youtube. Today's pose was Vrksasana or Tree Pose. I had a hard time with the balance on this but can honestly say, post workout, I feel great!
So far today I have accomplished:
Wake up with no snooze
Yoga workout (I am happy I was able to do this because I have been feeling a little sore from past workouts)
Drank 2 of 8 glasses of water (probably would have been more had our work not provided us with champagne!)
Still have to floss, but I usually do that at night when I brush my teeth. Now I am off to class with my bottle of water :)
I have had this tumblr blog for as long as I can remember. It started out as a way for me to get lost in reblogging pictures of love and music. I have since taken a hiatus in the past few years with the occasional log in to check out my feed. I have decided to get back on the horse and start regularly using tumblr again, not to reblog and distract myself from homework but to hold myself accountable.
This goal of holding myself accountable is a small goal for the bigger picture. Ever since I can remember I have been a Disney fan. How does this relate to goals and holding myself accountable? Well, I have been wanting to run a Disney half marathon since I discovered it was a thing a few years ago. I have a hard time with follow through and if I am going to run a half marathon (and put up the money to do it), I'm going to have to follow through.
Here is where the accountability comes in. I have decided to set up small goals for myself that will eventually get me to my big goal of running the Disney's Princess Half Marathon Feb 2016. I started my goals at the beginning of the year in January, but fell off in February when I got the flu. Now I am starting back up with it in March and will hopefully continue to follow through with it up to and hopefully even after the half marathon.
The goal with these small goals is to lead up to the big goal and to prove to myself that I can accomplish them. Small goals such as start yoga, drink eight glasses of water a day, etc will help me feel a sense of accomplishment and the encouragement to reach my major goal.
So my intent is to get on here everyday and give an outline of my accomplishments or lack thereof. To get started, this month is March and my goals are:
Yoga everyday (I'm not very flexible, so this will hopefully help with opening up my body and help me run more efficiently)
Wake up, at least during the work week, without hitting snooze (this is a hard one for me, but my boyfriend has agreed to help me with this my participating with me, 7 am comes awfully fast)
Drink 8 glasses of water a day (This one I started in January and did well, but slipped up in February because all I seemed to want while being sick was sprite)
Floss everyday (this might seem obvious, but is not something I do on a daily basis, this is one I also started and succeeded with in January but fell off in February as well)
As you can see February was a hard month for me. I think, however, that getting back at it is reason enough to not beat myself up over it. This isn't going to be easy and I will probably skip days, but hopefully with this blog I can hold myself accountable and reduce the number of days I skip.
These goals might not seem like they relate to the bigger goal of running a half marathon, but for me they are stepping stones. These goals are all things to help better myself and prove that I can accomplish something. If I can do this and keep it up then I can do anything mentality.
Today has already started out on a high note. My alarm is set for 7:17 and I can say with complete honesty that I got out of bed by 7:18 and was dressed by 7:20. I had enough time to put on makeup, wake up and even eat breakfast at home for the first time on a work/school day since middle school. It was amazing. Hopefully I can keep this up because as much as it feels good to hit snooze and sleep that extra 20 minutes, it felt even better to have time and not feel rushed.
