Do it anyway!

When we are in the midst of holiday preparations or traveling, it is a challenge to fit in our workouts.  We need to do it anyway.

For one thing, we need to remember that we are important, too.  Taking care of ourselves is a prerequisite for taking care of other people.  It gives us an opportunity to set a good example for our kids (or maybe the other adults around us who could use a little nudge in a good direction). 

Additionally, we will have more energy and sharpness to use as we work and play on the holiday.  Who doesn’t want that?  Cardio will help us sleep better and manage our stress.  Weights will help us keep our metabolisms on track.  Pilates and yoga will help us stay centered and peaceful.

We can do this!
