As you probably have already experienced if you’re over 40, growing older is not for the faint of heart… I noticed my knees bothering me a few or more days ago. I’m been tired and lacked energy… During the holidays, I really let myself enjoy the yummy eats and time with family so… I’ve put on a few pounds and really slowed my moving down. The weather played a part in it too but we tended to sit and visit more and more especially after the little one left.
So last night, I had enough of it and decided I had to get up and do my yoga. Usually, when my knees (and hips) bother me, it’s mostly due to tight muscles in my legs. So this morning, I got up and brought my yoga mat down so I’d be ready for yoga after my tea.
It felt so good! Why do I ever stop moving my body? It matters more than what I eat! But I also need to eat a little more reasonably.
After I did my yoga I took a few minutes to just listen to some music and move my body, and it also felt amazing.
Then my mom and I went running around. We spent the whole day out shopping and eating lunch and after being gone all day, I still had plenty of energy when we got home to get out take down a few more decorations I needed to get put up. I couldn’t believe it!
I. Had. Energy!
At 4 in the afternoon! I even continued on and folded laundry!
All I can say is if you are low on energy after the holidays and having trouble getting back to yourself, get yourself up and MOVE! It doesn’t have to be a lot, just move! You’ll feel so much better! I can’t believe the difference.
I also, felt less snacky! Not say I didn’t have a snack but it was smaller and only one, not all day. Lol
I feel great and hope I can keep it up. Remembering how much better feel should give me what I need to keep to going. Should… I said should… We shall see.
Until next time…♥️
