Over the last week or so,
I think everyone in California has been fixated on fire and smoke. We are heartbroken for those who have lost
everything. We are frightened of the new,
chunky air quality. We hope things get
better. We work on it. We do what we can, sending money and buying
masks.
When our environment is
stressed, so are our bodies. For those
of us who, like me, cope better with stress when we can do lots of cardio, the
stress can build up. This is the time
for indoor workouts, people, or even no workouts if we have compromised
breathing, feel particularly congested, or suffer extra fatigue.
Even yoga, with its focus
on breath, can be stressful in these times.
As always, we need to use
our good judgment and do what makes us feel better.
Be safe, dear ones.
