In total transparency, I was feeling a little out of sorts this morning. I led myself down a path of imposter syndrome, felt incredibly unmotivated to do the insane amount of work on my plate or clean up my apartment, and all I did want to do was sit on my couch and doom scroll the internet. Healthy.
The very last thing I wanted to do was workout, but I had a feeling it would make me feel better. I decided to keep it easy-breezy and do a 20 minute low impact Peloton ride over my lunch break. 10 minutes in, my heart rate actually started to decline. At the first bead of sweat, I felt about half as angry over the little things that had been driving me nuts all morning.
Honestly, it drives me absolutely insane how much better working out - even a 20 minute low impact ride - makes me feel. It can be so hard to talk myself into, and then I’m always so glad that I do.
