Hi Hi, Happy Monday, loves! Hope everyone had a great weekend! We couldn’t have had a more gorgeous weekend here in CLT. The weather was seriously spectacular – super sunny, Carolina blue skies + that fresh, fall feeling in the air – we definitely soaked up every bit of its gloriousness, spending loads of time outside! After boxing on Saturday morning, we did brunch outside on the Patio at Kid Cashew and then drove up to the lake to see my nephew’s soccer game. My sister was taking care of 3 little girls that belong to one of my sisters best friends. The girls adore Adam!! Its so cute. We played in the woods, kicked the soccer ball and jumped on the trampoline. Wee
I am sometimes baffled by how different my body can feel from one day/week to the next. If you tuned into last weeks WTW Post, you read that I needed to take 2, back to back rest days and was struggling with my recovery. This past week couldn’t have been further from that – I had so much energy (to spare!) and I took just one rest day on Friday.
This prompts me to repeat myself for the gazillion-th time…
LISTEN.TO.YOUR.BODY
What your body needs is so different based on workouts, hydration, sleep, hormones, food, stress, etc…
never stop tuning in and building that relationship with yourself – mind. body. soul.
Hope everyone had a great Monday. Make it a great week!! xx
