I am really trying to work on my sleep.
NO... I don't have a lot of "time" to sleep, but I can try to have deep sleep when I do sleep.
The gym must have taken it out of me because when my body hit the bed, I could feel my muscles melt into the mattress.
This morning (after sleeping 7.25 hours!) I realized that I don't have much time before we leave for medical appointments. I stayed IN my pajamas, and got onto my bike for 30 straight steady minutes.
I made my grocery list and peddled slowly... but it was great. It reminded me of my old self. The pre-pandemic me who woke up early, did cardio and felt amazing. She's in there.
I didn't try to push myself. I wasn't attempting to feel any burn. I just wanted to show up for myself in a gentle way.
I consider this morning a true success. I will string these little wins together and before you know it, I'll be well and truly on my way back to ultimate health.
It's still early yet today. After all of our appointments, who knows? I may feel motivated to do more exercise this evening :)
