It is no secret that I am not a fan of hot weather. So - when I woke up early this morning and was actually cold while in bed I was giddy!!!! I knew that it would be a great day for hopping on my bike. (Well - I am not actually going to hop on my bike - I am not that coordinated!!!) It was actually hard to stay in bed until the sun came up .... so by 7am this morning I had already put 20 miles on my bike. How much fun!!!
It was also a great time to meditate. I have made the commitment to quiet meditation for the next 30 days - but as I have said before (after learning it from my sister) that mediation can come in all forms - including being active. The ride this morning allowed me to set aside everything going on in my life and just be present in the moment. I was able to be truly grateful for my body - which is sometimes hard for me. I was almost able to be in love with my body - and what it can do. It also allowed me to continue to deepen my intentions to pursue a PhD, make it to yoga at least 3x per week and start my own personal training business by November. Whew - that was a lot by 7am in the morning.
And - the exciting part about today (besides going to class) is that I am FINALLY going to get a bike rack and panniers for my bike. I know I have talked about that before .... but it is finally going to happen today. Although - I am not sure that the pannier will happen today. I want some that look completely chic - and I can take off and carry to school. I found one online - so I may be just ordering it today. More to come ...
