Heidi Hard

I think that I've started "75 Hard" about seven times.

I never went past Day Four, I think.

As you may, or may not, know it is an app that you put on your phone.

The requirements are:

75 days of:

Two 45-minute workouts a day (one must be outdoors)

One gallon of water a day

No alcohol

Ten pages of reading a personal development book a day

Daily picture of yourself

Following a diet

No cheat days

Ugh.

Literally gave up seven times, or more.

Recently, I realized that I was "struggling" with some things... thoughts and feelings and such.

I recognized that I needed to do more focusing on me.

So, I'm doing Heidi Hard.

My goal with Heidi Hard is to focus on Heidi.

It's to break through the resistance that I might be feeling.

It's to be more in-tune with my body and my mind and my spirit.

It's to remember how strong I am in every way.

It's to remember that it's MY job to love me and accept me and validate me.

So, Heidi Hard looks like this:

Hydration: Drink at least one gallon of water a day

Move my body: Every hour at work, I get up and move my body. I go to the bathroom and I do an exercise every time I get up.

I do a second workout everyday. This might be going to the gym. It might be doing a 30+ minute workout on YouTube. It might be going for a brisk walk while R is at football practice. It might be 30 minutes of yoga.

Nutrition: I eat when I'm hungry. My biggest meal is usually lunch. No added sugar junk food because it makes me feel yucky. I don't restrict anything unless it makes me feel icky, like dairy.

Light: I sit outside for 20 minutes a day.

Light: I listen to, or read, personal development talks and books each day for at least 30 minutes.

Rest: I get to sleep before 10 pm every night.

Journal: I journal every single day each category and what I eat every day. I also journal how I FEEL.

I'm on day eleven of Heidi Hard and I feel motivated to continue to take care of me.
