Week 15 Learning Challenge: Reading Yoga

I particularly love reading and I particularly love yoga, so I really liked this graphic. It grabbed my attention because I think reading and yoga are two introspective activities that really relax me and make me forget about the worries of the world. I think that everyone should read, because reading is important and you can learn so many valuable lessons from books. I also think that everyone should do yoga though, and I don't think nearly as many people do. It's such a great activity that causes you to focus on being one with your breathing and your body and challenges you to forget about other things going on in your life that might be causing you anxiety or stress. Do yoga and read, my friends!

Week 14 Learning Challenge: My Time Management

My time management tips: I really used to suck at time management, so this is something I've really had to work on. My best tip is to write everything down and to make lists. For me, nothing is more fulfilling than crossing things off of a list. So, when I make lists, I am far more likely to get things done. I also am an avid user of my planner; I don't know what I'd do without it. I write EVERYTHING down and cross it off as soon as it's done. That way, it's easy for me to look at my planner and see when I'm going to be busiest so I can manage my time better and can plan for being busy then.

Learning Challenge: My Health Guide

My guide to being happy and healthy! Health isn't always something I've been super keen about. Growing up, my family wasn't very healthy so it's just not something I ever really thought about. However, in the past year, I've started to really focus on my health and I'm a lot happier because of it. One of my biggest health tips is to find something you actually enjoy doing. You will not enjoy exercise if you do not enjoy the type of exercises you are doing. There are TONS of ways to get your exercise in so don't spend your time doing it being unhappy. Find something you enjoy and stick to it! That's similar to my next piece of advice, eat what makes you happy, just not too much of it! You're not going to be able to keep eating things that you don't like, so don't even try. Eat what makes you happy and eat things that you enjoy, but don't eat too much of them and try to balance out what you eat. I always try and work out in the mornings because it sets me up to have a healthier, more productive day. I like to work out with people, because it keeps me accountable. I don't weigh myself because I care more about how I feel, not how a number describes me.
