GRATITUDE: For a Valentine’s Day where I was able to leave cards with love notes and candy for my family this morning. For a day reminiscent of childhood getting driven around by dad while we exchanged US dollars for Japanese yet followed by both our first outing to Costco business center in South SF. For a body that can feel pretty healthy and fit after a new rowing exercise composed of rowing interspersed with bodyweight exercises on the mat. For Google translate and its ability to understand the listening exercises for my Japanese homework better than I can understand so I can prep for the Lesson 6 quiz. For nighttime because I’m tired and can’t wait to go to close my eyes today…I’m starting to enjoy this sleeping thing too much.
FOCUS: Protein packed day (no rice, no bread today!) and in general must make note that I think it’s helped tremendously with it being day 2 of my period energy wise.
INSPIRATION: Listening more with Dr. Mindy Pelz (The Resetter Podcast) to gain better understanding of how certain lifestyle changes can help women’s cycle/overall health both physical and mental. She’s a big proponent of fasting and its impact on insulin sensitivity. Still need to read her book “Fast Like a Girl.”
