Every January for the past few years, Adrienne has prepared a series of yoga workouts available for each day in January. Many of the FIFI community have joined in for all or part of her series. This year, she opted to do only a seven day set, which I am happy to ignore
Adrienne is lovely, and her dog Benji is a delight. But I felt a certain pressure to join the crowd and do yoga every day in January, even though yoga really isn’t my thing.
The pressure was entirely self-imposed and arose simply because I knew others were doing it. Sounds a bit like every other New Year’s resolution. And it gave me the same result as so many resolutions: I struggled to make it to the end of January, then abandoned the habit all together. Kind of like Steve.
My January was filled with activities that gave me joy: lots of swimming and dancing, a bit of riding my bike. No winter activities like skating, snowshoeing or cross-country skiing yet, but the weather looks promising for February.
So thanks Adrienne for putting in all the work to develop those videos year after year, but also thanks for giving me a good excuse to stop trying to keep up with you every January.
