Good Morning

The morning was cool and a bit wet but good enough to allow me a happy stroll. The stroll then turned to a walk followed by a run. An energetic and wonderful morning for me. 😊

In the last so many years, this happens to be the first one where I am actively going out for my walks and runs despite the monsoons. I have a different level of appreciation for myself for doing this. I now realize that the wet roads are not a hindrance if I made up my mind that it is not. How much can change just by a change in the mindset; I wish I had known this a lot sooner.

Anyways, how was my healthy day like?

Today was a bit longer than my usual distances in the recent past. I did a six-kilometer today with a mix of walks and runs, depending on how good the road was. The vehicles on the road were quite understanding and would slow down around stagnant waters instead of splashing them on me. Hats off to such drivers!

Once home, I gave weights a miss today. I did a few sets of planks, pushups, surya-namaskar, and crunches. It was an exhilarating change from my regular schedule. I think, overall, an hour of my time was spent around these exercises.

In the end, I spent about fifteen minutes meditating. Today I did not give time for Ho'oponopono, but I am sure I will complete a few sessions throughout the day. Here is my write-up on the topic for those wanting to learn more about Ho'oponopono.

Have fun reading and practicing.

Anyway, that's it from me for now. I will see you all tomorrow.

Namaste.
