I started back with two people on "my team" today...Andrew, my personal trainer, and Priscilla, my therapist. These are two very important people to my personal journey and I was so excited and anxious to meet with each of them today. Each of them kick my butt in their own way.
I was anxious about going back to the gym after it had been so many months since I had done anything resembling a work out. I have gained weight and my knee has developed bursitis. I was dreading what Andrew would say, but that was all my own judgements. Andrew was excited to see me and ready to get me back to work. I did my 10 minutes on the treadmill and then we got started. And I did it all!! I was so concerned about being able to make it through but it went really well and Andrew was so supportive. I am actually looking forward to getting up in the morning and going to the gym. I am not sure I have ever said that.
Later in the day, I met with Priscilla. I just love talking with her. She really helps me put things into perspective and has great ideas for helping me retrain my head. So homework for the week is relaxing and breathing, two things I am not really good at. I can't believe I have to practice breathing, but I could think of worse things to practice.
Hi!! I love finding another blog to read. I'm so happy for you that you are taking this year for yourself, I think that is great. Sounds like you have a great start so far, good luck and I hope you enjoy yourself.
