Activity Self-challenge

[sarahmichigan]

If you bother to read my activity updates, you'll see that I spend a lot of time beating myself up for not doing stretches. Stretching is important for a variety of reasons, perhaps the most important is that therapeutic stretches help a lot with some of my chronic pain issues, IF I do them on a regular basis.

Since I'm seeing this pattern, I'm challenging myself to do one - just one - sun salutation every day for 30 days. I'm on day 6 today, and so far so good. They're a pretty good all-over body stretch, so even if I don't hit all my physical therapy stretches in a given day, I'll at least have done that much. Plus, daily yoga seems like a good idea during the stress that sometimes accompanies the holidays.

We'll see how the rest of the 30 days goes...
