Happy Monday! I admit that it can be a little more challenging to embrace all things autumn while living in a tropical country, but I do think that perhaps this pumpkin spice thing has gone too far. Anyone else agree?
Beans are amazing, and barely any effort to make from scratch.
New post: what sort of TLC do you need? Can you honestly say?

Physical Health
Eat Well
Ultra-processed food is at best not the best choice, and at worst, actually bad for your health. What you choose to eat makes a difference in your well-being. Choose wisely.
Be Active
Weights first or cardio? Decisions, decisions.
Let's move!
First a 5 minute EMOM, then a fast-paced HIIT, finishing with a 5 minute AMRAP. Ready?
Your EMOM (every minute on the minute) will be:
10 x squat thrusts
10 x low side shuffle (sitting low and staying low, shuffle three to the right and then back to the left three. Each way counts as 1).
Repeat the moves at the top of the minute for 5 minutes.
The timer will move on the the HIIT portion. You know all of the moves.
Your AMRAP (as many reps as possible) consists of the following moves:
-4 rounds of 1 star jump + Narrow squat and tap your foot front, side and back. You'll do a star jump between each leg, so a total of 4 star jumps.
-16 twisting mountain climbers (8 each side)
-8 leg drop + toe touch crunches
Move through the three moves as many rounds as you can in the 5 minutes.
Spiritual Health
Every day actions:
1. One act of kindness
2. One act of savoring
3. Write down three things you are grateful for.
Mental & Emotional Health
There’s « glass half empty » and then there is wearing blinders. Optimism is a good thing, but there is a point where you aren’t seeing reality.
Social Health
“To comfort a grieving friend, just say anything; it doesn’t have to be perfect. Grief can feel very lonely, so it’s very comforting when a friend recognizes your loss and what a big deal it is. Instead of platitudes (‘everything happens for a reason’), just say something that feels authentic, even if it’s just ‘I wish I knew what to say,’ or ‘I love you, and this really sucks.’"
Be your best, friends
