100 Days of Radical Wellness – 40

100 Days of Radical Wellness – Day 40

The morning juice is still going strong. Two oranges. Water and ice. Half a bag of broccoli and half a bag of spinach and some chia seeds. Serves two.

Cold shower lasted two whole minutes today!

Meditated, core, climbing and arms.

But no art and no journaling.

Seems hard to do it all 🙁

Day two of cold showers was decidedly harder! But did it. I will say that 30 days in I am in a more mediocre place but still making progress and that’s what this is all about. Here’s to showing up every day!!

I had my first cold shower this morning and it was cold cold cold!!

I did it post-exercise this morning so I imagine tomorrow will feel even more painful. Let’s see!

In the wellbeing journey I feel exercise, food, meditation and skincare seem to be going reasonably well. I have more room to grow on drinking water and cold showers so let’s see how this goes!

100 Days of Radical Wellness – Day 37

I had a tough day today. I couldn’t put my finger on the why but I felt frustrated and spent all day. I was annoyed with everything and wanted to upend my life completely.

I have a 24-hour rule for moments like this. Where I do nothing for 24 hours and then see if I still want to take drastic action in which case all bets are off.

Let’s see how tomorrow feels 🙂

I’ve been thinking a lot about what wellness means to me and where am I giving myself grace or a break and where I am actually letting myself off the hook when I should not.

It’s a delicate balance to become who you want to be while celebrating who you are.

Best part of going to the gym in a Saturday night is how empty it is!! I left everything at the gym today. I am sore and tired and so grateful.

Here’s to hoping the gyms can stay open.

I have done a really poor job of keeping track of things this week. But I am excited to see that some of the wellness acts are now internalized for me. That’s the biggest goal for this project.

Make it automatic so it doesn’t feel like an effort.

Here’s hoping!

All the climbing gyms in the bay area are finally open again. I am very excited.

This hasn’t been the easiest week for wellness but I am still doing so much more than I was and this project is the reason why.

For the second time this week, I ate out. Even thought it meant I ate past 6pm, it was worth it. The food was delicious, the walk was great, and getting out and talking was great.

All the climbing gyms in the bay area are now open so that makes me super happy too.

Here’s to being flexible and enjoying the little moments of normalcy.

Well day two of March and I am no closer to picking my thing. And I missed all of the things from yesterday I think. So. There’s that.

I am still moving a lot. Food is a bit all over the place. Soul work is also all over the place.

I think I need to lean into those. I will come up with a plan 🙂

Happy March.

As part of my One Little Word class, I’ve been trying to figure out what daily habit to start this month. Here are some options I considered:

– journaling
– water a lot more water
– cold showers
– whole foods only
– no food past 6pm

It’s the end of the first day and I still haven’t been able to pick one. It all feels a bit much. Maybe because I’m already doing the wellness journey. I will have to sleep on it one more night.

100 Days of Radical Wellness – Day 29

I spent most of this weekend in my head. That’s rarely a good thing but this weekend it was unavoidable.

So to help myself out, I took two baths, two long walks, journaled and read.

Sometimes radical wellness is giving myself the space to be where I am while being kind to myself about it.
