So this week has been a learning experience for me. Not that I'm not learning something every week, but this one has been more of a slow down and reflect.
I've had to take a break from my DDPYoga before due to injury. But this week I have had to take a break due to being sick. And I know that I'm not the best at being sick, plus I get a bit impatient. My body has made me listen. So though I haven't been able to do what I have scheduled this week I thought why not step back and watch. So I have really watched the workouts this week. Trying to pick apart what I do compared to the video's. I have been doing DDPYoga over a year now, but this was a good exercise to do since most of the workouts I know.
Imagine always being in the game and never stepping back to watch it. Now I understand why football players watch so much game tape. There are some little things that I saw that I may have been missing that may change things a bit, once I hit the mat again, hopefully soon (as soon as I can breathe and it not hurt).
I have been having to work overtime to keep myself mentally in the game too. Body aches all week, from being sick and I'm sure from not working out. And feeling like a slug. I know this is temporary and I know I will be back on the mat soon, but this week has been a challenge for me more mentally than physically. It has given me a chance to see where I was, where I am and to see where I am going.
It all rolls back to "Living Life at 90%". Taking time to review my goals and adjust my list. Time to expand my life and keep moving towards "Destination Me".
We all need to refocus from time to time, because we can become complacent in our routines. So in a way I'm glad I got sick this week, I know it sounds strange. But sometimes it's that 10% of life that helps you see the other 90.
