Planned rest days refresh us not only physically, but also provide guilt-free bonus free time to use as we see fit.

Can we have year-round guilt free bonus time?

Intentionally not doing it on the weekends
(photo:Row 58 in Disney’s Animal Kingdom parking lot… not everyone lives to see 58. And of those who live that long, how many weekends in a row have they avoided exercise?)
Fourth weekend in a row intentionally not exercising. No running. No Gold’s Gym.
Doing nothing has never felt so amazing.
Insight: Our wellness plans ebb and flow. But only if we refuse to quit.

Saturday and Sunday taken as active rest
(photos: Dropping an 8th grader off on a Sunday morning for day-long classroom project made it convenient to stop by ATT for an inquiry… two hours later MLC has a new, better, contract)
There’s an intriguing correlation between improving one area in our life and the degree to which the other areas are similarly impacted even though the ripple effect wasn’t our motive.
Sometimes change is forced our way and sometimes we control whether change can happen or not. And generally we are resistant to change, so we fight it when it’s forced, and we’d much rather take comfort in tradition and routine.
The reason both weekend days were active rest is because Mid Life Celebration is ‘closed’ on weekends – a “money” decision rippling into body.

If only we had spent more time avoiding exercise
(photo: It’s still dark out, so this photo from three days ago is this morning’s inspiration to ‘just do it’)
We may not think we are dedicating our lives to avoiding exercise, but that’s exactly the end result for many.
Yee haw! Two purposeful days of active rest. No travel. Orlando-stay-at-home lucky.
Expecting a decent run this morning.
Hoping something similar for you.
Always.
A lifetime of it.

A bit like money in the bank
(photo: Sun just beginning to illuminate our view yesterday)
When we dedicate ourselves to an active lifestyle in spite of the overwhelming odds it will fail, we can go into a day without the need to exercise because it will be so stimulating that physical activity is not necessary this day.
It’s a nice feeling.
A bit like money in the bank.
