 Year of Yes – 93
Today was a lovely day of connection. I got to chat with my mom, my friend Evelyn and my friend Leslie and I got to go climbing with my husband. So grateful for internet and telephones and zoom and whatsapp and facetime and all other ways to connect with people I love. It really makes all this a million times more bearable. Yes to finding ways to connect anyway. #yearofyes #karenikayearofyes  100 Days of Radical Wellness – Day 63
I slept in this morning. I did the bike. I sat outside in the fresh air. I connected with friends. I read. I went climbing. It was a perfectly ordinary day and I am very grateful for these ordinary days. #100dayproject, #the100dayproject, #karenikaradicalwellness April 3, 2021 | Tags: #100dayproject, #karenikaradicalwellness, #the100dayproject | 100 Days of Radical Wellness | Leave a comment
  100 Days of Radical Wellness – Day 62
Things have been stressful here and I find myself stress eating more than i would like. But I am also hopeful that it will pass and working on being patient with myself. One day, one hour, one minute at a time. #100dayproject, #the100dayproject, #karenikaradicalwellness April 2, 2021 | Tags: #100dayproject, #karenikaradicalwellness, #the100dayproject | 100 Days of Radical Wellness | Leave a comment
 Year of Yes – 92
Today my husband took us to this little know gem of a place and we got to walk around and enjoy the fresh air and see art that is built on nature and into nature. It was quite magical. Even though it was a 45-minute drive from home it felt light-years away from any city. It was a good reminder that I don’t have to travel far to be in a completely different environment. And that I don’t have to travel far to be in a completely different mindset either. I didn’t want to go today. In fact I didn’t want to do anything. It took a lot of energy to get out of bed this morning let alone to leave the house. But, as always, I am sitting here and feeling grateful that I went. And maybe one day I can be better about yielding to whim too. Yes to nature, yes to saying yes. Yes to doing it anyway. #yearofyes #karenikayearofyes  Year of Yes – 91
Happy Thursday. I am finding that I randomly stress about upcoming things that are not currently under my control like whether I will be able to find a slot to get vaccinated or things that I need to do but can’t get motivated to get done. Like finding someone to paint our house or renewing my license. So instead I will list some things I am looking forward to: – Climbing competition season is starting soon and I really love watching bouldering competitions so I am really looking forward to that in two weeks – The kids have spring break in a week. I am trying to decide if we go.on vacation but plan to take time off either way. Looking forward to that. – It’s been 70-80 here all week, really looking forward to spending more time outside in the fresh air. That’s my current list. It’s making me feel better about what is and helping me focus on the now. Yes to embracing what is. Yes to sunshine and time together. #yearofyes #karenikayearofyes  100 Days of Radical Wellness – Day 61
Some days wellness looks like a lot of work and other days it’s a lot of rest. #100dayproject, #the100dayproject, #karenikaradicalwellness April 1, 2021 | Tags: #100dayproject, #karenikaradicalwellness, #the100dayproject | 100 Days of Radical Wellness | Leave a comment
 Year of Yes – 90
How are we already 90 days into 2021?? I have not been leaving the house enough this week and thus not enjoying enough of the sunshine that California is lucky to have this week. Tomorrow I will make a point to go outside. I still can’t really think of anything pithy to say. The days have been really tiring here and by the time it’s 7pm, I feel completely spent. Looking forward to saying goodbye to March which is historically one of my least favorite months. And looking forward to April which promises to bring in a lot of change and celebration and maybe just maybe if we’re lucky, some vaccination. I’m really hoping April proves to be an excellent month. Saying yes to April and what it might bring. Yes to what is. #yearofyes #karenikayearofyes  100 Days of Radical Wellness – Day 60
I’m continuing to ride the bike in the morning but my sciatica appears to be flaring up and I find myself sore pretty much constantly so it might be time to take a step back and evaluate. Still not able.to get into the routine of journaling. Maybe it should be my April project. Even if for 10 minutes a day. I certainly need it. #100dayproject, #the100dayproject, #karenikaradicalwellness March 31, 2021 | Tags: #100dayproject, #karenikaradicalwellness, #the100dayproject | 100 Days of Radical Wellness | Leave a comment
 Year of Yes – 89
Today went by in a blur. Now I am spent and ready to go to sleep. I can’t even think of anything even remotely pithy so tonight I will say yes to an early bedtime and some rest for my tired brain. Yes. #yearofyes #karenikayearofyes  100 Days of Radical Wellness – Day 59
This morning I started doing the bike for 10mins, let’s see how long I can stick with it. I’m sorry and tired all over. But also very grateful. #100dayproject, #the100dayproject, #karenikaradicalwellness March 30, 2021 | Tags: #100dayproject, #karenikaradicalwellness, #the100dayproject | 100 Days of Radical Wellness | Leave a comment
 100 Days of Radical Wellness – Day 58
Today was a good day. I did meditation, the bike, arms, core, stretch, and yoga. Took a cold and hot shower. Then I had broccoli and spinach drink. I journaled, did art, read and had avocado toast with egg. Then I read some more, did a bit of work and then went climbing. Got groceries. Now I am sore and reading more and grateful for a day off that was spent well. #100dayproject, #the100dayproject, #karenikaradicalwellness March 29, 2021 | Tags: #100dayproject, #karenikaradicalwellness, #the100dayproject | 100 Days of Radical Wellness | Leave a comment
 Year of Yes – 88
Before the pandemic came, Jake would take me climbing and I would do 2-3 routes and I was ready to go home. 45 minutes was plenty for me. This past Saturday, we had an appointment from 6-8pm in San Francisco. We got there 5:58pm so we were the first people in. We left 8:02pm. We were the last people out. I took this shot on our way out. This is what they do to the ropes at the end of the night to put things away. And it was a symbolic moment for me as I realized that I could have easily gone another hour. I was having a lot of fun and I felt like I still had some strength left in me. It’s not often I can see progress. Even as I’ve been climbing harder routes, I didn’t realize that my stamina was also improving until that moment. Earlier this week j had a similar experience while doing my 10-minute core class. There was a move i couldn’t do at all and then suddenly I could do it. I have no idea what changed but I am so grateful. Side note: I know my climbing posts might be getting tiring but….my kids are now older and prefer not to be photographed, I work 70% of my awake time, the rest of the time I’m either reading or climbing. It’s pretty much the only place I go if I am leaving the house. Once I get my shots I am excited to post photos that aren’t climbing or flowers. But that still appears to be at least two months away. Yes to getting stronger and yes to increasing the my stamina. Yes to leaving it all on the gym floor. And yes to paying attention. #yearofyes #karenikayearofyes |
