Relaxation and Flexibility

 
    Hello everyone! It's only Wednesday and it has already been a week. I really needed that snow day yesterday for a bit of a break but I could use about 10 more of those at this point. Yesterday as I was finishing my workout I was thinking about what I should write about this week. I realized that I'd like to share the thing that I have been doing at the end of my workouts and what I plan on doing a lot more throughout my day to calm down, get some peace, and relax. 
    I used to be a gymnastic so I hold myself to way to high of a standard when it comes to fitness. I have lost a lot of flexibility since I retired from the sport and I have decided I want to gain that and some skills back this year. I went searching online for a new stretching routine to follow. I have one from my old practices but I wanted to switch it up a bit. I stumbled across a Youtuber named Mady Morrison. She makes videos on yoga, fitness, and lifestyle. I watched a few and really enjoyed it. Since I found her, I have been following her 15 minute Full Body Stretch video. Its a mix between stretching and yoga. I always feel so calm and relaxed after doing it and I have noticed a big difference in my flexibility.

    I wanted to shared this video with you all because I think that you can honestly find some amazing content to follow on Mady's page. She's got some hour long yoga videos and so much more. So, If you are looking to get more flexible, just stretch more, do some yoga, or meditate, I think you might find this to your liking. The soundtrack is so calming and perfect for after a workout, right when you wake up, or before you go to bed. If anyone decides to try it out let me know! I'd love to hear what you think and if you find another great post from her!

Changing My Mindset

      A lot has happened in the past year. At a glance, I might be compelled to rattle off all the terrible things that have happened in my life, in my family and friends lives, in the country, and even the world. That is all I have focused on. While some of those things might be a topic of a blog post in the future, that doesn't mean I am back tracking and going back to a negative mindset. I think writing about it is a great way to put your thoughts on paper, figure out how you truly feel, and then try and think of the good that came from it.      There have been so many great things that have happened this year like starting my senior year of college, hitting the one year mark with my amazing boyfriend, getting to spend more time with my family, learning to cook amazing food, and focusing on exercise. Those are all incredible things! While some of that may seem small, I choose to make it big in my mind. I want to relish in it and be grateful for wha...

Speaking with a Hollywood Producer

     Last night I had the pleasure of being invited to a zoom meeting with Big Brother producer Don Wollman. Wow, it was an incredible experience hearing about his life and getting advice from someone so successful. We started out the night meeting in the GCC with Chris Marsh, an amazing COM professor. After that we all split up into different rooms so we wouldn't have to be masked and hopped on zoom. Within a few minute, Mr. Wollman hopped on the zoom call live from Los Angeles. We were all so excited!     We were informed before the meeting we would be asked "why are you here?" True to that, it was the first thing Mr. Wollman asked the group of 10. That question can be answered in so many ways. I was there because I am passionate about the industry and would love to learn about what it is like from someone who has been in the deep end for so many years. I was also hoping to learn a bit about the process of shooting Big Brother. I was able to ask a questio...
