Take Some Time For Yourself; No Matter How Little

20 Mar 2024Steve Schwarz

Ugh, it’s been a tough week or so in life, work, health, and, to lesser degree, in dog training. I say that as a backdrop to what I really want to say (sound familiar coming from me? 😉): take some time for yourself, no matter how little, and you’ll feel better for it!!

Among my “woes” my toe tendon pain has flared up again and I haven’t been doing much exercising and I was just too “meh” to do it. But tonight, instead of “feeling better” by eating junk food, I put on a KarmaFitness stretching session. Nothing too energetic, working through whole body stretching at a gentle pace. It wasn’t the workout I wanted to do, but it was the workout I could do. And I feel better for it.

By doing that session I took a step toward my desired self image that “it is like me to eat a good dinner and exercise regularly”. And also a step away from the self image I don’t want: “it is like me to eat junk and sit on the couch”.

I hope you can make a little time to move yourself toward where you want to be also.
