Technique Tuesday - Make Space
Do you have a designated area and set-up to move your body? Even if space is scarce you still want to create a visual reminder to make time for yourself. Creating routines are not only done by fitness watch alerts or calendar reminders to find movement, they are also achieved by making a home gym set up. Just think how easy it would be to skip that sculpt class if you had to find your mat, equipment, laptop and move furniture. Now reimagine that scenario if everything was ready in a comfortable spot created by you. Whether you have a spare room, basement area or even the corner of your bedroom you can make it work!
