Claim Your Time

This post is is for all the stay-at-home moms and dads out there. (The relationship with picture will make sense towards end of the post). Whether you are working from home, caring for your kids and managing the fort, homeschooling... or whatever your situation is… Claim.your.time. CLAIM.YOUR.TIME. Whatever you spend that on.

Tune into how you feel

Be honest with yourself. Tune into how you feel when you take a break from working out. Energetically, mood-wise and in regards to your internal chatter. Are you using exercise purely for a tool to control your weight and shape? If so, how does not exercising (because of holidays, injury, being sick -you name it-) make you feel? Most likely a bit anxious? Upset? Worried? I haven't always had a healthy relationship with food. As a young adult and up to becoming a mom, I would
