Alright team, what're we winning at this week? For me, I had some really trying days on Monday and Tuesday after I got back home and I am so grateful to say that movement, action, and DOING SOMETHING helped immensely. I did not sleep much last night, but rather than continuing to toss and turn, I went ahead and took care of some chores - dishes, laundry, surprise project, etc. I got 15 minutes of movement in before I met clients today and it really set the tone for me to have a nice day -- movement. is. medicine. 15 minutes a day is 91 hours a year. You can get A LOT done in 15 minutes a day. Then, rather than letting myself get distracted by my phone or social media, I set boundaries with myself and prioritized DOING things, not CONSUMING them. This allowed me to be incredibly productive today that has carried over into me having a better mood and I really turned this week around because of ACTION. You climb a staircase... One. Step. At. A. Time. The small wins add up!

Don't trust all of your thoughts when your emotions are in the driver's seat. Learning to Ride the Mental Waves is essential here. Let me know your thoughts in the comments below once you've watched!

Every year I make posters to motivate my students while they take their end of the year state tests. Felt myself relating to them alot today while “actively monitoring” , so I thought I would share with the rest of the class.

One thing I did for self-care today was go for a walk which definitely made me feel refreshed and in a good mindset .Two things I learned from watching the Mindset Mobility video is that growth happens when you allow yourself to learn from both good and bad experiences, and Flexibility in thinking can reduce stress in difficult situations.

Hey squad, So, I’ve been traveling. I’ve been away from my home since March 25th and arrived this morning, May 11, at 3am — a total of 47 days. And the biggest knee-jerk reaction that my mind and body are having is this: - GO GO GO, you’re behind again!! - How could you take so much time away what were you thinking?! - Okay, you’ve got that over there, then this thing, reach out to those people, and then you’ll have to— Full stop. I need you all to recognize that no matter where you’re at on your journey, you’ll always need to find ways to regulate. Perfect relationship? You’ll get triggered and need to regulate. Sleep schedule is solid? You’ll have an off night and need to regulate. Food intake is better than ever? You’ll have a moment of weakness and then need to regulate. So, for me today, I’m not rushing back to the grindstone or the drawing board or getting back to the 5 people who are already contacting me about stuff. This would undo a lot of good that the time away gave me: perspective, slowness, breathing. No. I matter. And so I’m going to stay grounded and rooted for some time and then I will get back to it. Others urgency is not your emergency. Remember that. *and keep it in your own brain’s back pocket for itself sometimes like I have to do with mine today
