How to do when you are in LOW motivation?

Hi All!!

Thank you for stopping by my blog :)

Everyone has that day right?
It's hard to keep up workout when I am in low motivation.
I have had a few times... and each time, I gave myself EXCUSES.


"yes.. You are tired.. you can take a rest"
" well.. You may catch up tomorrow... if you feel like it"
"That's special gift for you because you have been doing GREAT!!"


and then...
It's hard to CATCH UP !!!
I was ease up myself for a few weeks after my karate test.
I kept doing my workout.. but I reduced a few extra..
When I tried to be back regularly workout.. IT WAS SUPER HARD!!!


Lesson Learned!!
Even low motivation.. I try hard as I can!!!
don't ease up too long too much!

I have had low motivation in there days...
yes.. it was hard to keep up when my motivation was LOW..
My body and mind couldn't help each other.
I was doing modified modifier most of moves..
I had skipped my Super food which is healthy meal of day
so I tried to take once a day at least no matter what!!
It's not the best to drink or eat them for cook.. because those heat will break down a part of nutrition.. yes.. some of them are weak for heat.
but Better than Nothing!!

Yesterday, I was up 4:00 or so..
I felt better already.. and First time ever.. I did workout before 8!
I got "SWEAT" and after finished it.. I FELT Better and BETTER!!!!
I did all way without modified version.

You don't have to Push TOO MUCH.. but sometimes you need to determinate to KEEP GOING even you are in low motivation or mood ;)

I knew I could do physically.. but emotionally stopped me.
but don't forget about listening what your body really tell you :)
You only can understand and listen to your body.

Rest Day

It was cool morning today😃
We didn't need AC until afternoon!!

Today was my rest day of workout schedule.
yes.. we need a rest once awhile to keep going, right? 😉
I really wanted to do workout today... but well... I decided to take my rest day.

I have felt pain in my shoulder for more than few days.. so it may be good for me to take a rest.


This old lady "Oreo" is taking a rest most of day though... 😁
She is 17 years old.

Even fitness was rest day .. I was still working on my self development !!

 
Have a great night everyone　💓

You Are Beautiful!!!

Hey, thank you for stopping by my blog :)

Yesterday, My friend lost her good friend and made a video and tell everyone her important message.
I was thinking about to leave my comment and share her video.

But I couldn't.

Because I know how my friends feel.. also I know how her friend felt.
I understand both of side.

and I am so afraid of flash back and get a trigger.
so Instead of sharing her video or leaving my comment on her post.. I decided to post here.
Because I KNOW some of YOU know what I am talking about.
or
Some of YOU are thinking about IT!

Her friend lost her own life.

I might be her.
It's easy to say " You are gonna be FINE!" or " Ask someone's help"

When he/she or YOU are IN the situation... you will think " NO! I am NOT gonna be FINE!!!!" " Who is gonna HELP ME????!!!!!"

right?

It's in middle of darkness... even strongly WISH seeing a small light...

You can't see that..

Even you tried...
Usually.. person who is IN the middle of that situation.. doesn't start " HEY! I am thinking about giving up myself!!... but I may  or not.. what do you think? :) "

or " Hey.. I need a HELP"

more likely... start " hi... how are you doing? I am just wondering. just say hi" or " would you like to come over have a coffee or something???"
They will ask you something very general...


They don't think the person is thinking about "IT" at all.. so they will reply " well.. yea.. ok.. just let me know when" or " so sorry.. I can't do right now -  I will let you know" or.. " Oh Yes.. we will have fun!! we need to set up date soon!! "( and never happened )


It's gonna HIT YOU right?

I chose to isolate from other people... but inside of me.. I REALLY NEEDED SOMEONE!!
I tried to avoid contact anyone.. even my family was around.. I was HARD to be there..

From Other people , " if you are not telling me, I never know!! come one girly!!"

so have very big gap in between.
Both side right!! nothing wrong!!

but I am gonna telling YOU.

My heart is aching RIGHT NOW just writing this.. I am trying to not cry right now!!
I am trying hard to REFUSE to go back !!!
Oh hell no!! I don't want go BACK again....

listen... You can go through this.. I don't know you.. and you don't know me...
but Believe me.. YOU CAN!!! You can SEE a LIGHT.
You already have LIGHT just can't see it right now.

You are beautiful inside that's why you are suffering.
Those suffers make you wiser, smarter, stronger and beautiful more than anyone else.
I remind you one more time.. You are WORTH to CHANGE IT!!
You can have POWER to CHANGE it yourself!! you may need someone to cheer you up.. Grab someone!! if they don't or can't ... tell ME.

My English is not perfect.. but I listen to you.. :) I think about you :) I smile for you :) I cry with you :) I hug you.. I KISS YOU.. what?? no thank you for that one.. OK ;)
but I will do.. in person or in virtually :)

Think and feel You are gonna see your LIGHT!!! Desire it!!

and

Bring self UP!!! SMILE yourself..
just show your smile to Yourself.. go to bathroom.. and smile :)
do you want me to tickle you? ;)
You may not like first.. keep trying..

Start feel anything.. Blue sky.. fresh air... green tree.. pet your pet!! hug your daughter or son, anything makes you feel comfortable or better.

keep going a little by little!!!

Start 10 minutes breath in & out in the morning .
or 10 minutes light exercise.. or stretching.

Promise??
You are not ALONE!!!! Follow me ;)
I started my journey... I feel more confidence myself.. and feel better.
Barely happens back then... I had NEVER thought those days are back!!

I couldn't even think of going outside without fear.
I couldn't even think of getting OUT that situation.

I still have lots of issue.. not solve.. but at least.. I have POWER.
I am right behind you.. or front of you!

You are WORTH. You have POWER to go through it!!
Your LIGHT is ALWAYS inside of YOU.. even You can NOT see right now from you.

Love,

Age will be reason for stopping you???

Yes I am over 40!!!
I had been in bad shape!!!!
I was overweight!!! well.. still I am (///ω///)

BUT!

They are gonna reason not to start exercise? or change healthy life style??



Answer is "NO!!!!"


Say it loud...


"NO!!!!"

sometimes.. I am in shoulder pain!! like a these few days (￣▽￣;
Did I use that for excuse?? Nope!!

I actually did my workout and felt better and pain was gone!!!
but next morning it is coming back.← that may be "age"

so I decided to try one of newest product today.
instead of my regular one.
and... I LOVE IT!!


 I am not good at dancing.. but not bad myself lol
After finished.. I felt good even I couldn't do my regular workout.
I sweated a lot for 30 min dance.
It's not high intensity this one.. so I can still catch up ( other than my terrible rhythm )
just enjoy it.. that's matter :)

I posted my dance video on my facebook page.
so when you visit there..
Can you Like my page or leave your comment there or here, will be appreciated :)
Your LIKE or leave comment, share will be my power!! and motivation :)
yes YOU are giving me !!!

AGE doesn't MATTER!!!!

Hey everyone!!

Thank you for stopping by my blog :)

I went to Asian store to get some groceries.
I have been unable to visit my family in Japan for 11 years...
How can I survive??!!!!!

one.. my parents have sent us care package almost every month.. that is mainly for my daughter :)
and also going to Asian Store to get some Japanese foods.

I had given up Japanese rice until my daughter started solid food.
That best baby food is... Japanese Rice!!!!
so She was raised lots of Japanese foods when she was a baby.

and Japanese foods are healthier and most of them are lower calories.
We enjoy meal from eyes and flavor.. how each plate look nice.. and YUMMY??!!

Anyway.. we went to Asian store to get Japanese rice and Yakisoba noodle (stir fry noodle/ Chow mein) Soy sauce, Japanese mayonnaise etc....
oh!! and Soba (buckwheat noodle) and Udon (Wheat flour noodle)

and.. guess what??!!!
We got a package from my parents!!
and.. Udon was inside lol
