addieplum Posted May 4, 2020 Report Share Posted May 4, 2020 Hey all! I first joined back in 2018, but haven't done much until now. I got laid off from a job I moved states for, and instead of freaking out I started working out. So corny, but it's really helping. I had been doing really well for about three weeks, and then had an attack of sciatica. I'm looking to be back on track by the time this new challenge begins, so here are my goals for the five weeks based on what I was already doing before my injury: bodyweight workout 1x a week walk every day 5 min meditation every day yoga 3x a week 7 Quote Link to comment

wolfgirl Posted May 6, 2020 Report Share Posted May 6, 2020 Hi! I like your goals. I just read this book about habit building. It said that the best time to get a new habit to stick is during transition periods during your life. It sounds like this may be one of those moments for you. Good luck with your goals and I hope things get better for you. You've got this! 3 Quote Link to comment
