The Beauty of Balance

Sometimes finding balance can be a bit tricky. It’s something that requires tweaking from time to time but I believe it can be achieved.

A few weeks ago I was teetering between balance and obsession in my day to day workout. I believed I could just keep on going and I did to the point I was working out 2 hours a day, 5 days a week.

I continued up until last week when I had the lofty idea that I was going to push it up to 3 hours a day 5 days a week. What was I thinking? It was then that I stopped to edit my goals. The goal is to find something that’s reasonable and stick with it.

I may end up shaving the cardio back to 30 min and 30 min of weights 5 days a week, who knows? All I know is that a week from today I start weights with LeeAnn and she’s going to set me up on a weight lifting program.

I’m finding a routine where I can begin to feel the rhythm and focus on the things I want to achieve. It’s a great feeling knowing my husband is taken care of, I’m finding my way back to healthy living and exercise has made its way back into my life.

I thank hubby often for taking the best care of me, for providing encouragement each day and loving me no matter what.

There is beauty in balance.
