So, as promised. This week is an easy week for the HomeWork.
Before we get into ‘it’ - a couple of things....
I will be out of town for the next couple weeks and therefore will not promise to be assigning HomeWork. If I have a chance to get to it, then I will. Otherwise, after today look for your next HomeWork on April 5th.
Also, remember, that the HomeWork is not “graded” and there are no negative consequences/ridicule/harassment for not doing a particular week’s HomeWork. They are merely weekly tools to increase your awareness about your health and fitness – physical, mental, and/or gastrointestinal. So if I pass you on the street don’t hide behind a telephone pole or anything because you did not “do” the HomeWork. I reserve the right to not do the HomeWork also. We are all human on this giant ball together, so when I attain perfection, I will then start harassing you about your lack thereof...
So, now, this weeks’ HomeWork:
Every day this week, every hour that you are awake (as best you can), do either one of two things (depending where you are).
Stop, stand up, wide comfortable stance, reach up and overhead stretching up to the sky and then bend to reach down to touch the ground 3 times, and attempt to think of only 1 thing. This 1 thing is, “I am fit and healthy”. Just keep thinking that over and over while you are doing 3 repetitions of the toes to sky reach and “DYNAMIC” (ha ha ha) stretch..
OR, if you are in a situation where standing up to do this is ‘impossible’ and/or rude;
(driving, in a meeting, etc. etc.)
Stop, close your eyes, and slowly take 3 breaths, and attempt to think of only 1 thing. This 1 thing is, “I am fit and healthy”. Just keep thinking that over and over while you are taking 3 slow breaths..
This is a form of tuning in, meditation, tuning out, whatever, that has been labeled by many, many, gurus, meditation teachers, exercise freaks, Jack Lallane, etc. Really all it is doing is changing up a static pattern or repetition of movement that we get into...
So, pretty darn easy and a little woo-woo (but not much)!
Talk to you all again in 3 weeks!
Speelling, mye last step towerd perfecsion,
