What you care about and get to MISS in your day is something you can easily avoid, even when you are upset emotionally.
For starters, I’m guessing you never miss brushing your teeth, you don’t miss washing, you don’t miss sleeping very often-all of these you never miss because you consider them essential in your life to function, you get them done with zero fuss end of story no matter what’s going on in your life.
When something out of the blue comes up, you may miss your workout, your eating may be all over the place and a ton of stress is all around.
The day after that becomes your choice whether you keep missing your workout and whether you keep eating badly/erratically. Someone has better take charge of the situation and the sooner you do it the better.
Every emotional situation can put the brakes on our exercising but how long that goes on is up to you, and even a small workout will do to get your head right.
Your workouts are your best stress reliever, your very best strategy to feel better even if you don’t feel like doing it, and invaluable for letting you think properly when maybe all those around you are losing their heads.
When we are stressed or upset, doing a workout seems off putting, but its the only way to get YOU time to be alone, to think with new clarity which may bring a fresh slant on the situation, and get you ready to deal with the challenges ahead.
Consider your workouts a must do and your best fighting chance every day, as essential as cleaning your teeth and washing, because without it the stress will build up and eventually overwhelm you, and before you know it you won’t feel like starting back.
