๐ฌ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐....Three little words that mean so much to me.
From the start of adulthood, I have always found life at times challenging.
I struggle with a lack of self-confidence, procrastination, and especially comparison syndrome, in work, and everyday life.
I used to hide my feelings behind a black cloud, but now I am more open to showing and talking about how or why I am experiencing certain emotions.
For me, I can wholeheartedly say exercise is hugely beneficial. It can help control and process my thoughts, switch off from the world, and focus on me.
That said, during those times, I don't always have my best workouts. I just know that when the endorphins are released during exercise, it helps me stay physically and mentally strong.
I am having my own battles right now dealing with arthritis in my back and the constant pain. Not being able to train to the intensity and strength I'm used to. It's hit me hard, and I am still trying to get my head around it and my changing body that comes with it.
Even on my worst days, though, I will make sure i do some stretching or try a little walk.
Exercise is wonderfully powerful. It shouldn't be judged as a chore but rather a positive part of your day.
Find the time to re-charge your batteries and be in the present.
Start today and feel better tomorrow.
