Give Your Mind a Break



As Crossfitters, many of us are high energy, constantly moving kind of people. We know we need our rest days, but we don't really want  them most of the time. We monopolize on "active recovery" and love going to bed knowing we worked hard that day, mentally and physically. Sometimes though, even we, need to let go a little bit. Yesterday, I had a few friends come up to CT and we spent almost 6 hours just sitting on the beach, soaking in the sun and the breeze and the environment as a whole. Before and after, I spent my time eating on an outdoor porch with no time restraints, absolutely nowhere to be. 

The sun started to set and my mind goes, oh crap, I really should've went for a run today, or maybe I'll do some tabata in the house before I go to bed. But then I reminded myself how peaceful the day felt, how I literally for the first time in forever, completely let myself go, let myself relax. So give your mind a break, and come back to the grind, the hustle and bustle and the barbell fresh the next day. 




i chopped all my hair off :/
