Pumping Iron 🏋🏽

As the weather changes, and life slowly rumbles into a familiarity of sorts, maybe it’s a good time to reevaluate our goals and personal wellness. Call it self-therapy.

Many didn’t do well with the closures of gyms and fitness centres. Unfortunately, not a regularly 'gym goer', I was not one of them. 🏋🏽

A lot of people I know workout daily -- like with weights and home gyms and memberships. The real deal. 👀 My brother, a loyal member of our local YMCA, was very happy when it reopened last month. 👍🏽

Inspired, my husband and I decided to try it out. 🤷🏻‍♀️

It’s SO lovely to meet before the world wakes us, check-in on each other, and work out together -- setting us up for a better day. Add to that, weekend hikes, and it’s so true what they say, that natural high is a REAL thing. 🍁

Anyone looking to make a change, I recommend your local Y — if you have one — or something comparable in your community. Those of you who already do this, I am in awe of, and applaud you. 👏🏽👏🏽

It really does help us drink more water, sleep better, eat better, and feel better. 💧🛌 🥘 😊

Growth is growth, and sometimes it’s the simplest things right under our nose that can improve everything. ➡️👃🏽
