Got it done this morning, will get my steps throughout the day!

Hello All! My name is Brenda, I am a single mom of two boys ages 12 and 10. I work from home as a medical claims adjuster. I decided to join Reclaim Your Routine because as much as I love routines I struggle to keep them! I love working out in the morning before work because after work is complete chaos with dinner and sports schedules. Not to mention homework when it comes. 😩😩 For a while I felt like if I didn’t do it in the morning I wouldn’t do it at all. I am hoping over the next three weeks I can get into the grove of a set routine. Working out daily no matter the time, mobility days, and maybe even some meal prepping. My intentional habit is like to build is have a healthy sleep schedule. I’d like to give the community my best energy. Thank you all for welcoming me to the community and providing such motivation.

I have been working on being present. I mentioned yesterday that today would be a busy day but I was able to get outside today for a quick break. I love this time of year on our campus. Our grounds crew does a remarkable job with the gardens, and I took time to admire the flowers during a walk. Before we know it, the snow will be falling again. Enjoying this time where I can feel the sun on my arms and face, and all the colors around campus. Truly being present on my walk.

❤️ Did I keep my promise today? For mindfulness today I went for an hour massage. Fully embraced being present in the moment. 🌱 What's one win? Tuesday is a work from home day for me. I had several zoom meetings but didn’t need to be on camera the whole time so used periods when I was off camera to stand and get some light movement in at my desk. ➡️ What's tomorrow's next step? Tomorrow is a busy day, however already planning time between meetings and projects to step away from my desk. As long as it’s not raining outside, I’ll plan to grab my ear buds and do a mindful walk for 5-10 minutes when possible.

Happy Tuesday everyone. Got in a nice walk already this morning and we did some watering of the flowers and grass.
