Ran for the first time in over a week. Have a million things half-done and I’m a bit stressed. Just moved to a new place and it’s been a long week unpacking. The run today was made difficult by the smoke from nearby wildfires and the drink is a seasonal gin&tonic which was delicious. I walk/ran back the 2.7miles to my house after running the full first 5k which ended with me racing a train.

morning routine ! 5:00 am

first, clorophyill water to hydrate and clear my skin. It may also help to increase blood iron reserves to treat anemia and hemoglobin deficiency. then, instead of using heated tools to achieve a perfect voluminous and bouncy hair I like to use a heatless curling rod and leave it overnight. To finish the look I like to put rosemary oil to give my hair a little bit of shine. today is my rest day so I'm going to a pilates class. I love to wear a pink or flowered outfit, blouses with a cute lace or a subtle bow. It just gives me much more confidence and motivation to exercise. drink of choice: "Golden Milk" key ingredients are loaded with antioxidants and anti-inflamatory properties like turmeric, ginger, cardamom & cinnamon. I like to add adaptogens as herbal supplements like ashwaganda, lions mane, cordyceps and reishi. I drink it as an alternative to coffee.

I've been struggling with my goals, so I'm breaking them down into weekly goals for the moment, to be more attainable. That said,

Weekly goals, 13th-19th November

Food and drink goals:

Take time to make a good breakfast in the morning - successful 6/7 days

Prepare lunch in the evening - eh... I had frozen meals for 2 work lunches, takeaway burritos for 2, and my meal delivery service meal for 1. Technically I prepared by having frozen meals?

Prepare some healthy/easy snack options for work, also some snacks/treats to nourish my emotions - successful, had fruits, granola bars, etc, plus some treats on hard days

Enjoy some of my variety of herbal teas, maybe in place of or alongside some of my coffees - successful, I've been enjoying my range of herbals, particularly turmeric and cinnamon tea each morning

Aim for 2L water/day, and consider playing around with fun additions to make it more interesting, like fruit or floral waters - only achieved this on a few days, wasn't tracking but I know I was dehydrated more days than I'd like

Movement goals:

Try to go for a walk 2x (treadmill or outside, depending on how I'm feeling + the weather) - not successful, 0/2 walks

Try to do some gentle movement like yoga 2x - 1/2 only

Utilise opportunities for incidental movement or adding movement to static activities - have been adding in extra movement when possible

Do my physio exercises 3x - also did not achieve this, 0/3

Self care goals:

Add meditation into my days; use short meditations to make this more attainable - successful, meditated at least 5 days this week

Practice mindfulness - sometimes, this is a work in progress

Allow myself time to complete my skin care routine - successful, have been reasonably consistent

Start reading a book on my to-read list - did not start reading anything yet

Practice journalling, or try writing therapy - have been journalling

Partake in a spiritual practice at least once this week - successful

Remember to listen to my body and be respectful of my needs, treating myself with kindness and love - I experienced fatigue and headaches for most of this week, which is why my movement goals in particular weren't achieved, so I'd say I listened to my body

This feels flexible and attainable for my current state (which is not great, but getting better).

The best breakfast I’ve had in a while.
