SKIRT! Team Challenge: Mind and Body
By FoxC1, Monday, March 14, 2011, 1 comments
I had always known that my stress level can be pretty high at times. I had found different outlets that allow me to relax and clear my head. I must admit that this past week I did a very bad job allowing myself the time to do those things. Last week was the first week since we started this challenge that I hadn't run, or done any exercise. Many of the guys that for me made it a point to remind me that I hadn't exercised. I found it interesting because they could tell by my attitude that I hadn't done those things.
They tend to tell me that I shouldn't try to be Wonder Woman, that I should let them help out more. I try to do that, but it is hard when I see things in m mind the way I want them. It gets hard to convey what I want to say, so I just do it myself. I could tell I was a little snappy this past week, I did apologize to them and promised to run this week. Sometimes, I could feel myself getting very tense this week and knew wha the problem. I just felt I couldn't do anything about it because yet again I didn't set that time aside to allow myself to do so.
So, this coming week I am planning on having a better week in my mind and with my body. I didn't realize how closely related these two are, they need to be in sync. I will be dancing a jig by the end of this week, I am writing done now the day and times that I am setting aside to do my running. This way I have no excuse for not doing it, I am holding myself accountable this time.
thanks to all of you for your continued support during this challenge, I have learned so much about the power of positive words. I have also learned to share my thougths with people I trust and you guys know who you are... I value you guys for that.

Yea Cleo- this challenge is a
Yea Cleo- this challenge is a slippery slope. It takes a lot of effort to be diligent, but lik eyou- I plainly see the effects when i don't do it. there will always be times when we can't look after ourselves. I think it is important, to our well- being, that the voice in our head and our friends LOL keep reminding us what we need to do for ourselves, and that we don't get too far off the healthy track and forget how much more we can do for ourselves when we remember to look after ourselves. Have a better week, my friend.
