Today What Did I Do…

 

I love these questions. Today what did I do for my mind, my body, my spirit, my relationships, my creativity and passion? This pretty much sums it up for me and all the notes that I want to hit on my path.

I have to tell you, this form of journaling is meditative and peaceful. It clears my mind and helps me to focus. Yesterday was a busy day, and I still managed to cook for myself and my husband, I made time for friends and  family, I took a few minutes to write, I was creative, I moved and I ate well.

Today, what will you for your mind? body? spirit? relationships? creativity and passion?

Journaling for Health

This is something I’ve wanted to work on for a very long time. I love the idea of art journaling through a process. This practice is a daily reminder of where I’m at and where I’m headed. I think it’s easy to for me to forget my goals on a day to day basis and let life get in the way. Creating this took about 15 minutes and it was just focused writing and doodling, which is so peaceful and mind-clearing.

Jillian Michael’s Ripped in 30- September Challenge

I’ve decided that September will be the month of Jillian Michael’s Ripped in 30. I’ve had the DVD for some time, but never made it through all four week sessions. This is the month.

Jillian Michael's Ripped in 30

What I love about the DVD:

It’s fast, only 37 minutes and I’m done.

Less jumping. Insanity is insane, this DVD is hard, but there isn’t a lot of jumping around.

It hurts and I swear a lot. If I’m going to exercise I want to feel it. I want to sweat and pant and beg for mercy. I want to feel it the next day. This DVD is good for that.

It’s a challenge. Planks and push-ups are hard for me, but I do my best. She also has a new workout for each week in a month.

What I don’t love:

This is me being petty, but sometimes Jillian says things that are really corny and silly. She makes weird noises and I just feel embarrassed for her. But, I try to pretend she isn’t talking. I think when I’m suffering, I don’t like jokes, so it makes me want to throw my hand weight at her. Other than that, I love it!
