COVID ???? is overwhelming. We’re cut off from our families, can’t see other people smiling at us through their masks, and, if you’re a mom you’re having to figure out school during COVID. This is overwhelming. When you’re overwhelmed you feel bad. When you feel bad you often don’t feel like working out, and I totally get that.
However, reality is this: we’re all going to be overwhelmed by COVID until it’s over.
You have 2 choices:
- you can be overwhelmed and let your body deteriorate and deprive your mind of the best emotional outlet available,
- OR –
(B) you can be overwhelmed and take care of yourself… overwhelmed is out of your hands. We don’t get a choice there, but we do get to choose whether we do self-care or not.
Not saying that it is easy. It’s most definitely harder, but it’s most definitely more important than ever.
It’s the same as showing up for work: many days you won’t feel like it, but you show up anyways and get what is necessary done.
Schedule your workouts in your calendar/iphone. And if you need help with staying consistent or knowing what to do for your body and goals then find a personal training that can help (I happen to know a couple world class coaches! – Just saying ???? )
