Happy Easter 🐰💗
Enjoy with self discipline, burpees are on the other side of this weekend 😃👊🏼

Gotta luv when your 8 yr old daughter challenges the cheerleaders to a 60 sec burpee challenge and wins 🙌🏼❤️ 🏆👊🏼😆

Less is more in this case 👌🏼
Ultimately find the balance 💗

'sAdrenalFatigueWeek: Exercise. It’s really important not to exert yourself too much when your adrenal glands (your petrol tank) is already empty. Doing wheelies everyday, whilst accelerating will only lead to complete burnout/adrenal collapse/chronic fatigue.

Gente exercise is recommended now, and sometimes in the beginning not even that. Things like the Chinese martial art Qi Gong is perfect, as is Tai Qi. Gently and mindful walking is an elixir in itself and when it comes to yoga – go for Yin, Hatha or restorative yoga not Bikram, Asthanga or even Iyengar at this point. Pilates will also be very helpful, as will be swimming.

Absolutely no Cross Fit or Spin classes, and forget about your running for now, and Boot Camp – NO! This is a time to ‘restore’ not ‘drain’. We need to put energy IN not give it away.

I personally found not running the hardest thing to ‘do’. Not because I loved running so much (and I still do) but because it helped me keep my weight down and my body fit and toned. But, it contributed to my own AF, plus – if I was truly honest with myself, even the thought of going for a run exhausted me. Sound familiar?

Re-learning what our bodies truly need at different times of our lives (and seasons) is a huge challenge. It’s a fight between the heart and the head – the soul and the ego.

Listening, really listening to our bodies is an art and one that will always pay off. The decrease in intense exercise won't be forever, just until you’re petrol tank is filled again. Surrender to ‘Less Is More’.
