Interview with Splits59

DO YOU HAVE A MORNING ROUTINE? WHAT ARE THE STEPS?

After I hit snooze about 4 or 5 times my husband finally pushes me out of bed.  First stop is the kitchen for a full glass of room temperature water. And I’ll turn on the kettle for tea.  Right now I’m on a Yerba Mate kick so while my tea is steeping I go to my meditation corner by the window.  Depending on the day I’ll meditate with my Japa beads, journal in my MANTRA MOVES journal, follow a guided meditation by my favorite Roger Gabriel (@rogergabriel108) or read a chapter in my book.  Currently reading The Dalai Lama’s The Art of Happiness.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE FORM OF MOVEMENT?

If I had to pick one ….. it would be walking.  You can do it anywhere, anytime and it literally takes you places.  I love exploring and being in nature so combining that with movement is my favorite!  Even if it’s just for a walk around the block I can find so many hidden joys when I get outside.  - Feeling the sun on my face, breathing in the fresh air, noticing a flower blooming, pups looking for pets, squirrels doing their squrriely things, maybe share a smile or a hello with a neighbor.  It’s the little things, ya know!

TOP FIVE THINGS YOU CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT?

1. Uuggghh, hate to admit it but #1 would be my Phone2. Bike3. Mantra Moves Journal (@mantramoves_)4. Jump rope5. Music
