Lifting Heavy Things

Life can feel so weighted down sometimes (or often), these last two years of pandemic and lockdowns and masks has been a drain on my energy and a feeder of my anxieties.

I need to (want to) do something to make the heavy things feel lighter.

I’ve known that between my role at work and my studies at home I spend a lot of time on my well-padded rear. My step counter is never happy with me. So today I made a decision that will benefit not only my health but also my mind and therefore my work and studies.

I began a conversation with a personal trainer.

Taking it slowly, but I know one of the things I have missed the most the last two years is lifting heavy things. And I know that by lifting heavy things in the gym, the other heavy things in my life will feel lighter. And so will I.
