Chill day. I didn’t get a lot of sleep last night, I woke up at 4am a little thirsty so I got up and had a glass of cold lemon water and well… that sure woke me right up! I read the news, played my word games, crocheted (I’m on panel one of four for my two big pillow shams), then I made energy balls – Mike had asked for them a few weeks ago and I decided I would make them today while he was at yoga. I made a new one, too after I made almond butter. I was an energy ball machine this morning. I wanted to make some to bring to Anne since she has been keeping me nourished with her healthy muffins. Her last batch was soooooooooo good, she added flaxseed!! (Note to self, you still need to do your dishes from this morning.)
We had a reservation at noon at Element and Carla and Arturas joined us! Arturas grew up in sauna culture in Lithuania and told us today that when he was younger they would sauna and then jump in a pond. He really loved Element and they both did great in the cold tubs for their first go, Carla even did the 55 degree one for her second plunge. Now I’m inspired to try it myself. We discovered that Mike has done 25 contrast sessions!!! I’ve done 6, which I think is amazing for me, but really impressed by 25! Tuesday is the ribbon cutting, maybe Mike will get to wear a crown hahahahaha.
Just checked my Oura stats and the session made a huge impact on my stress (physiological) metric! SUCCESS! Today is my peaceful (and restorative) day. Bye for now!
