Saturday afternoon
Now that the hockey season is over, I should have more free time that previously was dedicated to sportsball. Today I sat down and read a cooking magazine, which I haven't done in months. Now I want to eat everything, so I guess I'm going to the farmer's market tomorrow.
Part of the mindfulness meditation practice that I'm finding really valuable is mindful eating. And it's not so much about what you're eating as simply focusing on eating, and not being distracted by TV or the computer or work. Food tastes better when I'm not just cramming it in my face over my keyboard.
I don't think I've mentioned here that I joined Hogwarts Running Club. It's a charitable organization where you sign up to do virtual running, and you get medals for completing races while also donating to charity. I'm a member of Ravenclaw's Quidditch Team because I am a giant nerd. I'm also walking these races because I hate running, but it is getting me out of the apartment and stretching myself to do longer distances as we compete for the House Cup. I did a half marathon about a month ago. I'm going to complete a 10K today, and I need to do another half marathon after that.
And this evening, maybe I'll watch TV! Or finish reading The Raven Boys.
