Ever talk yourself out of moving your body?
I do it too.
Despite teaching yoga and movement classes, there are plenty of days when I’d rather stay home with a good book than head to the gym or my mat.
But here’s what I’ve noticed: I have never finished a workout, yoga class, or walk and regretted it.
What I do regret sometimes is not going.
Recently, I skipped a workshop I was considering attending, and afterward I found myself wishing I had gone. Not because it would have been perfect. Not because I would have performed at my best. Simply because I know I feel better when I show up for myself and move.
The goal isn’t perfection. The goal is participation.
If you’re waiting to feel motivated before you move, consider this your reminder: you don’t have to feel like it to benefit from it.
Go move your body. Your future self will thank you. ❤️
