What clicked this week? What felt a little easier, a little clearer, a little more like something you could actually sustain? ​ 👇 Tell me one win from your week... health-related or completely not. I'm reading every single one.

​So my Sunday shift last week was to track and observe my baseline steps. That was good. Better was to take an intentional gentle walk during the workday. Best was to do a walk at about a 6 out of 10 intensity. ​ I can say that I'm observing my week retroactively, but my step tracker wasn't actually juiced up because I was distracted by the Oura ring. I didn't notice until now that it was dead oopsies, so the objective data isn't the best. ​ Still, I don't think I need numbers. I know I went for a walk with a friend and had some adventures with the kids that involved walking, but most of the time I was hyper-focused on a project at a desk. That was a sedentary pull in daily steps ​ 🧘 The Quiet Win ​ My good goal was simply to track and observe, which is gentle and exactly what I needed in this heavy-project mode. I'm glad I'm still forced to reflect because my walking steps are really subpar during this project. ​ 💡 The Aha ​ Since I'm on a computer-heavy day, I have an amazing walking pad that I love. That's what I love about the Sunday shift... it's a quick "aha." It's not like three months go by. After a week I wonder why I didn't use the walking pad. ​ I feel better on my computer days with walking pad, but I have no good reason for not using it. I think I just folded it up and leaned it against the wall, so it wasn't in the right location. Now I'm unfolding it and placing it under my desk. ​ 🎯 This Week (same goal) ​ 1. Good: Track and observe my daily movement outside of structured exercise. 2. Better: Take an intentional gentle walk during the workday. 3. Best: Do a walk at about a 6 out of 10 intensity. ​ Some of my walks this week were a 6 out of 10 intensity for sure, just not every day. I'll see how my walking pad influences my movement.

Hehe. My kids are dressed for the occasion. Check out my living room carpet. One of my better fathers day gifts. What do you see?

🧠 Reflection Reflecting on my personal Sunday shift goal from last week, which was nervous system regulation, I'm feeling a lot better since my viral gastro but still notice my capacity hasn't returned to baseline. My body is craving more rest, naps, and early bedtimes, and that's okay. I allowed myself to show up that way. And that feels like honouring my nervous system intention. My Sunday shift goal for next week will remain the same because it's still what I need most. I'll add a little movement, since the weakness from viral gastroenteritis slowed me down. This week I'd like to gently track my steps and simply observe them. I'll intentionally avoid setting step goals because I want to honor my capacity while I'm still recovering. ✅ Good / Better / Best Goals • Good: Track and observe my baseline steps. • Better: Take an intentional, gentle walk during the workday. • Best: Do a walk at about a 6 out of 10 intensity.
