The past couple of days I have been really busy, and I haven't gotten my workout in the way I want. By the time I am finally done with all scheduled activities, I am so tired that I pretty much just do required chores and go to bed.So I have been finding ways to build a little exercise into my day at the office. A co-worker and I try to take a 10 minute walk every day (sometimes we even take more like 25 and build a coffee run in). This is great, because we get away from the office and decompress, and come back in a better mind space for our work. We also come back refreshed and energized. It's totally a win for everyone.
Another thing that I changed up is building in simple yoga poses while I'm waiting for things. I occasionally have to stand at the copy machine to wait for it to work. Now, in addition to the plies I was doing, I do Tree Pose and arm exercises, or the Dancer Pose.
I can tell that even just a few days of this change is making a difference, because I can feel the difference in my body. My muscles respond differently as I climb stairs, telling me that they have recently been worked.
For those of you who are busy, I encourage you to find a movement practice for the times when you ordinarily stand still. See what a difference it will make in your life.
