"Me Time" is soul food, eat some everyday

Well its been a while! I took a week off from the blog updates, because, well, to be honest, nothing has hit me. No explosion went off in my head that caused me to immediately dash to my computer to spill my thoughts onto my keyboard. And today, honestly, that is still the case, but I feel as though it is important. It is important for me to find an outlet to empty my head. I have found that over the past few weeks of doing this (blog) I have become much more clear, more focused on what is happening in my life, and with my goals that I set for myself. I encourage you to do the same, it doesn't have to be a public forum such as this, but find an outlet. One of my outlets is the gym, I can go there each day and be around people I care about and push through a workout and sweat my brain dry,  it is an hour where you can get out of your head in a way. I feel that we all need some time each day devoted to doing this. An hour or so, where we don't care what's happening with our job, an hour where facebook is on hold, and yes, even an hour where we are not concerned with the kids, the dinner, the daily stress of the day. Yoga, meditation, crossfit, or blog, make it a goal this week to find something, or take something that you are currently doing, and make your goal to use it more effectively. Clear your mind of everything before you walk through those doors at the gym tomorrow. Take a few deep breaths, and for an hour or so, focus on yourself, do not feel guilty for doing it, everyone has to have that "me time" because without it your body, your mind, your soul will start to suffer.

In other news, I turned 33, I hurt my wrist doing hand stand pushups, and I am pissed about it, I made a transition to extra short lulu surge shorts, which are boss (sky's out thighs out) , I got an awesome weight vest from unbroken designs, and have been working on muscle ups with it, as well as running.

 I have continued to follow The Outlaw Way each day, and well as participate in the daily wod at our box, when possible. I have grown to love this hot summer and have been having good days. I think finding that "me" time has helped with that. So find some. Care a little less about what others think of you, and more about how you feel about yourself......it is life changing.
