A Big Reset

Today I feel like I need a big reset button. There are so many areas of my life
that feel as if they are spinning out of control. This morning I went for a 5 mile
run after drinking bullet coffee. Do you know what bullet coffee is? Two cups of coffee,
butter, cream and MCT powder. This was after I had my first cup of coffee.

I should explain, I took the winter off from running, I just got started again three weeks
ago. I do a heart rate based training I learned from the Another Mother Runner. When
you drink three cups of coffee and are not in very good cardio shape, carrying 15-20
extra pounds and are getting closer to 60, it is not easy keeping your heart rate down
under 140 beats per minute. This is just one of many poor decisions I seem to be
making lately, but this is also one of those times that will teach you to slow down and walk.
There is no shame in slowing down in life. If you are a type A like me, you know
that is hard. I equate relaxation with laziness, this is simply a bad idea. All of us
need a reset at times.

My goal for today is to take things as they come and reset, relax and enjoy.
Do what I love and love what I do. Be kind to myself and others.

Today I wish you peace.
