Feel Better About Life

I have a very simple recipe for you.

It’s something I like to introduce to my palette after I’ve had a terrible day.

There’s only one ingredient.

It’s exercise.

This happened on Tuesday. I was immensely frustrated with work, so I threw on my shoes and headed to the gym. I ran a bit, biked a bit, and did some weights. I was like a whole different person.

Sometimes, I’ll get a little fancier and add another ingredient or two to the recipe. Also from this week:

(I’m an extreme saver of funny or cute pieces of text conversations. This was with my BFF.)

See? An easy fix. I may not be the most fabulous cook … but this I can do ;)

  1. I swear the best part of running (and exercise in general) is that it seems to wipe away stress, anger, negative emotions, etc. It always leaves me with a more peaceful mind :)

    How do you like your polar watch so far? I am looking to get a new one (I think my garmin forerunner may be dead :( ) so I wanted to keep my options open on what to get next.

  2. I love a good workout after a particularly heinous day at work – it feels great to just shut your brain off completely and do something purely physical for an hour. By the time I leave, I usually can’t remember what I was so stressed about in the first place.

    Chocolate works too…
