Off the Couch...Day 4

Jeff Galloway wrote the following article which I would like to share with you:

The Inspiration Muscle

When you're tentative about your motivation getting out the door for a run, if often helps to read (possibly out loud) the following list of benefits you receive after running:

  1. Your attitude is better after every run
  2. Stress is released, often completely dissolved
  3. Natural body chemicals (endorphins) relax the body, reducing or eliminating muscle aches and pains
  4. Your spirit is engaged, leaving you with feelings of accomplishment, confidence, and strength.
  5. Body and mind are connected, giving you the confidence that comes with being a more "complete" person.
  6. Your right brain is engaged, energizing your creative and imaginative resources.
  7. You're learning connections to hidden inner resources which kick in whenever you're under stress.

Today was except for my nutrition (will start with that next week) according to my plan.

I will be back tomorrow,
