Pax: GI Jane, Gosh, Katahdin
Warm up: jumping Jacks, potato diggers, high knees.
The thang: A Libra-inspired Ladder workout consisting of bird-dog crunches or superwomans, Rosalitas, plié jumps or sumo squats, side-plank pushups, and rainbow butts. There was a lot of balancing involved because Libra
We started with 1 rep of each move, then ran up and down the stairs, then did 2 reps of each move, etc. The goal was to get up to 10 reps and then start reducing back down to 1 rep, but we only got to 7.
Cool down: child’s pose, cobra, thread the needle, figure 4 stretch, freestyle stretching.
COT: I forgot to do the COT while we were there. But I wanted to talk about how important it is to be appreciative of the good things, even when there are a lot of not-so-good things you could focus on. Being appreciative can help change your view, change your attitude, and change the way you receive what life throws at you.I have been struggling with this a lot lately. A lot of not-so-good things have happened at once and it’s hard to appreciate what is good in my life but it is still important to try. 3 things I am appreciative of are: shelter from the elements, food to eat, and my family.
