Calming Bedtime Yoga Flow [12 Minutes]

Calming Bedtime Yoga Flow [12 Minutes]

Happy Wednesday, we’re halfway through another week! If you’re like me, this quarantine has been filled with a mix of good days and bad days… positive self talk and negative… sunshine and rain… water and tequila. 

And while I’m as guilty as anyone else of spending way too much time on social media lately, I will say that it’s been a breath of fresh air to come across posts that put things back into perspective for me. Over the past few days, there has been a lot of talk and action taken towards canceling a lot of the fun summer activities that us Minnesotans look forward to all year long which is very disheartening if I’m being completely honest. We’re cooped up all winter long and the summertime is supposed to be our release, our freedom and now beaches are closed, our favorite events will no longer occur and who knows if we’ll even be able to even be able to enjoy patio weather with our loved ones at all. 

However, this situation and all of those things I wrote of above are what we call… UNCONTROLLABLES. No matter how much frustration we feel about X, Y or Z, it really is out of our hands. What has brought me comfort personally, is focusing more on the things I can control (ie the CONTROLLABLES) versus the uncontrollables. I think this post from MaryBeth LaRue that I recently came across on IG sums these controllables up perfectly, so that’s what I’m going to leave you with today (& chill yoga flow to help you ground down and relax before bed).

THINGS YOU CAN CONTROL

YOUR BEING

YOUR BELIEFS

YOUR ATTITUDE

YOUR THOUGHTS

YOUR PERSPECTIVE

YOUR BEING CHOICE

HOW HONEST YOU ARE

WHAT BOOKS YOU READ

HOW OFTEN YOU EXERCISE

HOW YOU TREAT YOURSELF

HOW MANY RISKS YOU TAKE

THE TYPE OF FOOD YOU EAT

HOW KIND YOU ARE TO OTHERS

HOW YOU INTERPRET SITUATIONS

HOW YOU EXPRESS YOUR THOUGHTS

WHETHER OR NOT YOU ASK FOR HELP

HOW MANY TIMES YOU SMILE TODAY 

WHO YOU ASSOCIATE YOURSELF WITH 

WHAT YOU DO WITH YOUR SPARE TIME

HOW YOU SPEND/INVEST YOUR MONEY 

HOW OFTEN YOU SAY I LOVE YOU

HOW MUCH TIME YOU WASTE WORRYING 

THE AMOUNT OF EFFORT YOU PUT FORTH 

HOW OFTEN YOU THINK ABOUT YOUR PAST

WHETHER OR NOT YOU JUDGE OTHER PEOPLE

HOW OFTEN YOU GIVE TIME TO APPRECIATE YOUR LIFE

WHETHER OR NOT YOU TRY AGAIN AFTER A SETBACK

Sending so, so much love and happiness to all of you right now. ENJOY!
