We are nearing the end of January. How's this first twelfth of the year been for you? Around here things have been a bit boring! Germany is still in lockdown so pretty much everyday looks the same: Wake up, read the Bible, do yoga, work, cook dinner, eat, go to bed.
However, the advantage of this mundane season is that it is the perfect time to establish habits. Our routines are rarely interrupted by traveling or having people stay and there aren't many unforseen events to throw us off course.
However, we're also experiencing a global pandemic, which is pretty exhausting. So, maybe establishing new habits is not really where you are at right now. I feel you.
For the last three years I have participated in Adriene Mishlers 30-day yoga challenge during January, and I am doing it again in 2021. Normally, I am a pretty all-or-nothing-kind-of-person, but I am glad to report that so far I have missed three days and haven't throw in the towel yet! I am learning that progress really is better than perfection.
What are you learing during these strange days? I would love to hear about it! (Even though this is a newsletter I am always super happy when people reply - it makes it feel less like sending words into a void.)
