So we can all take a deep
breath now, right? We have gifted and
feasted and sung and played. Maybe we
have to deal with the inevitable detritus today, but that seems positively
manageable compared to the lead-up to the holiday.
While we’re taking that breath,
we can consider how best to move today.
Maybe more deep breaths are in order and something gentle and
lengthening? Pilates or yoga would be a
good choice. If we feel a bit of a
letdown after all the excitement, the mood-boosting of some cardio could
help. And if we happen to have some
residual stress or even frustration or anger, what better place to take it out
than in the gym? The weights do not have
feelings to hurt, so we can grunt and yell at them as much as we want until we
feel better.
Please notice that I’m
not considering the movement optional.
We don’t have to do a lot of moving today, but we do have to do just a
little because it really will leave us better afterward.
Go play.
