Making Movement Matter - Day 2 - Add In The Movement

Take some time today to consider what activity you are missing... 

Perhaps it's something that you've always wanted to do, or something that you have enjoyed doing in the past but are no longer doing for some reason, or something which you felt that you didn't spend enough time doing in 2014. What is it about that activity that feels good for you, or that appeals to you? What stops you from doing it?

It could be anything from relaxing and stretching to running a marathon. Take a good look into that today and make a positive decision to do something about it. If its something that you've not found time to do then what could you cut down on to make time for it instead (there must be something that you don't enjoy doing that you could use to find the time, or somewhere where you are wasting time without even realising)? If it's a big challenge then start small (if you've never run but want to do a marathon then start with aiming to run 20 minutes). If your health or physical set up stops you, is there something that you could be doing to change that, or is there an alternative that gives you most of what you are looking for.

Why does it matter? 
Simply, if you're not going to start doing something about it now then when are you? Make your dreams happen and if not now then when?

Me, what am I missing and what am I doing about it?
I had a couple of goes at snowboarding last year. I'm rubbish at it and truth be known it really scares me to have my feet clamped on a board on a slidey surface and feeling out of control. But I have wanted to do it for years and I don't want my fear to stop me. So today I have booked a lesson for next week. I also didn't prioritise running enough for me in 2014. It's an activity that clears my head, grounds me and gets me out in nature. Its my meditation. So once I've posted this I'm heading out for a wee half hour run.

Start as you mean to go on and action those things somehow today! Oh, yeah and you could go outside and move for half an hour again - especially if you didn't do it yesterday (you can walk and ponder at the same time....!)
