Once the pool opened here where I live I told myself that I had to push myself to come out here and get my water exercise in and the have.
The pool has been closed for 2 years during the Pandemic and then needed repairs before they could reopen.
This pool is not an ideal water experience after being soiled by the pool where I used to live on the other side of town…I’m still grateful to have a pool to get into.
Over the Pandemic, I’ve learned to go with the flow. Learning to not get stuck in a certain routine or having expectations. So I get in the pool when time permits, the weather permits and my body says Yes. My schedule with work or the weekends have not been consistent. The weather has gone from over 100 degrees to low 90’s or even mid 80’s…I still push to get in. I’ve had to pass due to the temps being too high and the one time I tried, I got sick or when monsoons hit and the storm of course stopped my pool time.
I don’t know how much longer I will be able to get in the pool before it gets too cold or they close it for the Fall/Winter. I honestly have started to price wetsuits…I’m not sure if I would go that far with my water exercise…lol
My goal is to transition into the residential gym where I live when it gets too cold. There is an indoor spa too. I am commitment to keep some form of exercise going through the winter.
But pushing myself to create this routine has made me proud. It has shown me I can and will do it if I put my mind to it.
I post publicly about it, to make me feel like I am accountable to others…Plus I hope to encourage others in the Creative Community and just people in general to get moving. To take care of their health, starting today.
The other thing about my pool time, it brings me peace. It really is a stress releaser. After a hard day at work, or finding out I need a new transmission for my car…I get in the pool and let that time push all the stress aside.
Find your reason to get moving and to be mindful of your health. Start a healthy routine before your health crisis forces you to make a change. We need to take care of ourselves…Mind-Body-Spirit 🙏
You matter, we matter…we can do this together.
Let me know your story and plan of action.
Share your step up for your health and wellness.
God Bless You…Won’t You Join Me.
