I just wanted to drop in and do like a two week into the new year check-in because when I launched the podcast a couple of weeks ago , one of my first episodes that I did was talking about how do you wanna feel this year , and I have to say that I've started the year off feeling kinda crappy .
I had started with the intention of doing a 30 day yoga program . I always do yoga with Adrienne on YouTube she's amazing and I had consistently been doing it for I don't know , I did it like 10 months in a row . It wasn't even this last year , it was the year before .
I don't know where time goes , but and Adrienne does a new program every year , and so I decided that I wanted to do it with her live . So that was starting on January 2nd . So I started that and I think I only made it two or three days in and I got sick and I was not feeling well for a bit I'm actually still recovering .
It was like the Sinacy cough yuck that's going around . And then my cat got sick and I ended up having to have him put down .
He had a tumor that grew from the size of a pea to about two inches from July to January , and his abdomen apparently was filling up with fluid and he was not well , and so I ended up having to have him put down , and then my illness did not get any better .
So I finally had to go into the doctor sinus infection , ear infection , bronchitis , all the goodness and finally got on some antibiotics . But it's been really interesting navigating each day because I think my body was like hey , you need to rest my body , the universe , whatever . And so I have taken a lot of time over the last couple of weeks to just rest .
And it is not always easy for me to do that because I , like everybody else , have all the things going on in my head about all the things I need to be doing , all the things I should be doing , and I really just had to pause and listen to my body . And so I've been very intentional with just trying to relax and allow myself to do that and rest .
And I think sometimes it's hard for us to remember that sometimes we need to do that , and when your body is talking to you , you've gotta listen , you've gotta listen , and sometimes it'll smack you upside the head , you know , in a pretty intense way .
So it's important to take that time for yourself and not should yourself , and just remember that every day is a new day and you know we get to start fresh every single day . Oh , part of my fence also blew down . Fortunately I had some friends living with me and my friend went out and like put it up in the snow , the section that fell down .
Like it's just been not a great couple of weeks . But that's why I don't like to set resolutions , because I just take every day at a time , you know , and I follow my impulses and follow my intuition , and I start every day asking how can I allow the universe to surprise and delight me ?
Today , and even when I haven't been feeling well , I've been surprised and delighted every single day , whether it was a conversation with a friend or a friend of mine bringing me flowers . You know just all the little things and just pay attention to those little things , because they can really make a big difference every single day .
And just remember that tomorrow is a new day and like I'm gonna start my yoga back up again tonight and I'm gonna start where I left off . I'm not gonna skip ahead , I'm gonna get back to where I was , because I feel better when I'm doing yoga and I want to feel good , so I'm gonna do the things that make me feel good .
So I don't know how your year has started , but mine has been rough and I know in the past the years have started off a little bit rough , but by the end of the year I have no idea what's gonna happen . So I just take it one day at a time .
So I hope you are having an amazing year and if you're not , just take it one day at a time and we will get through it together . I hope you have a beautiful , beautiful day . Thank you so much for watching my son .
