Early morning meditation session for 10:00 followed by Journaling X 10:00.  In your journaling time, just free flow and write whatever comes to your heart and mind.  Step back from wanting to control what you write or from filtering what you write.  Just flow…

Cardio – activity of your choice X 30 minutes at a moderate pace.  Something you can sustain without stopping, yet it’s challenging.  Think of a solid “6-7” on a RPE scale of 1 – 10.

Spend at least 5:00 on stretching, mobility work, or foam rolling.  Don’t think you have time in your day?  Do this while you are watching TV, first thing in the morning (just before your meditation session), or before getting into bed.  Just get it done!

Not sure how to meditate?  Not sure how to do some of the movements?  Hit me up!  I am happy to offer guidance and support.  Email me (chris@bridgingthewellnessgap.com), or post a comment below.

Early A.M. meditation:  Spend a minimum of 10:00 meditating and a minimum of 5:00 journaling.  Do this first thing in the morning.  Yes, you can set your alarm 15:00 earlier and get this done.  Make it happen!

Cardio:

5 rounds of:

  • Cardio activity of choice X :90
  • Rest X :90

Your score = shortest distance traveled in a round.  For example, if you run, and you cover 500 meters in round 1 through 3, then you cover 450 meters in round 4 and 400 meters in round 5 – your “score” would be 400 meters.

Post your results!

Yoga:  Minimum 10:00 of Yoga, mobility, stretching, foam rolling.  Or, join me for Hot Vinyasa Flow at Cityoga!  5:45-7:00pm.
