Mornin’ folks and Happy Monday. This morning I woke up nice and early and hopped right on my mat for 30 minutes of yoga. Just a quick session to shake the sleep away =)
Every morning when I start my session, I like to set an intention for my day. Sometimes I need patience, sometimes compassion or focus, just depends on the day. I just like to take a few minutes to invite that in and think about what that would be like for me on that day. How will it change my attitude towards the day or how I interact with myself and others? Today my intention is to be present, letting go of future worries and past successes and failures, just being here now. Lately I have been consumed with thoughts of what my future holds which brings up a lot of excitement, joy and even anxiety. Visions of living in NYC for culinary school (!), having my own place and job, and all that comes with it have been heavy on my mind. I mean, how could I not think about this:
Chelsea market, anyone? Gorgeous. The only problem is I keep finding myself wishing away time, counting down to the summer, to next year, to graduation (which is a year away!). I really need to focus on just enjoying where I am now because it comes with it’s own set of fun and joy. Am I right or am I right? Sometimes I just get ahead of myself so I’m going to try to keep that with me today.
Breakfast was ultra-satisfying this morning after 30 minutes of movement. Just some old school peanut butter and banana oats.
Freakin’ good. I enjoyed this bowl downstairs in the dining room. The house serves breakfast from 7-9am every morning so I just went down to chit-chat and eat breakfast with some friends.
Ok, off to be present. =)
