Exercise for thought

 Walking is a free exercise that we can do anytime of the day.  If you are like me you do not like paying a gym to be able to walk on a treadmill or use their equipment.  I'd rather take a few hours and walk and pick a track nearby.  I also like to walk with video instructors in the comfort of my own home.  Sometimes there are even free exercise classes that you can take at a library or local church.  Just check around and see what you can find.  Whatever you choose to do, whether in a gym or at the park, exercising is very, very important
     If there is not a free exercise program in your area, maybe it would be a good idea to get certified and be the first one to start a free exercise program. Going to the gym and working out is very popular right now and having an exercise program through a local church mite be a good ministry to the community. 
    Bodily exercise is not the only exercise that is important, we need spiritual exercise as well.  We need to exercise our minds spiritually as an escape from the world and its trouble.  Having piece of mind once in a while is crucial to having a steady pace in life. Exercise is a good way to relieve some of that stress built up in our minds. 
    Exercise is difficult to fit in our lives, but we must keep active so that we will not ruin our bodies.  Our blood needs a way to circulate all over our bodies.  We need the oxygen and the way to do that is get up from our computer or tv and go outside and walk a few laps just to say we got out of the house.
    It is so easy to just sit around and mope all day long, but God did not intend for us to be sad.  Exercise helps me to focus on the positive.  Sometimes it is hard when you are fatigued or have a chronic illness, but we need to get out and enjoy the clear, pretty air in order to reflect on what all God has given us.        #22q#autismspectrumdisorder#beblessed

Food For Thought

A journaling topic that Kim Erickson suggests is as following, " Write some things that happened this week that got in the way of your having a joyful day."   Well,  honestly, I could sit down forever and talk about this topic.  It's these kind of affirmations that have really gotten me through the day.  I wish I had known about them when I was younger.  Middle School and High school might have been a little easier.  However, I never really had any bullies attack me then.  At that time, the only real bully was my inner-self.  I stayed positive and always tried to keep my mind on God and things that do not concern this world.  Happy places, quiet places, and dreaming about far off worlds usually kept my mind busy.   That is how it is today as well, but sometimes, having a reminder every now and then doesn't hurt.   Not everyone is going to be your friend, and not every one is going to send positive vibes.  Sometimes you have to do it yourself, you have to wake up thi

for Thursday

s   I have been reviewing products for a while now.  I usually try to pick items that I actually want to use on a day to day basis.  Excitingly, this is one of the recent items I earned in exchange for an honest", unbiased", opinion.  My opinion is that it is "awesome!"     I will use this bag every time I go to the gym to workout.  Of course, my definition of "working out," is not the same as everyone else's definition yet, but I am stepping  higher each time.  Having fancy gym attire is not required, but definitely very, very helpful.    I am sure that people will eventually get tired of hearing about this bag, I am proud to own it.  I would have paid the full amount for this bag.  It has many, many pockets and a place for your water bottle as well.  It not only can be used as a gym bag, but as a travel bag also.  I love the length of the shoulder strap.  The best part about the shoulder strap is the padding they added for extra support.    Thi

Ten Ways I Stay Motivated

1.  Start the day with prayer or meditation. 2. Brew a good cup of coffee. 3.  Go over my list of goals. 4.  Set new goals ones the old ones are accomplished. 5.  Listen to motivational podcasts or youtube videos. 6.  Read biographies of people who have survived cancer or some amazing trauma.  This helps to remind me that no problem is too big for God. 7.  I try to look in the mirror and say affirmations every morning.  Some of these affirmations are the same ones and some are different.  8. Try to keep a good, constant routine. 9.  Write or draw in my journal. 10.  Reward myself for accomplishments.  After all, you deserve it. Hope you have a wonderful week !!
