Don’t act out confrontations in your head.
What angry scenes we stage in our minds! Reenactments of arguments recently fought. Vengeful thoughts of what we’ll say next time we see that so-and-so. Seething dialogs and envisioned acts of retribution aimed at whatever current nemesis we’re up against. These inner rants can poison our temperament, and have an all-consuming effect far out of proportion to whatever caused it. Become skilled at sidestepping these ill feelings before they have a chance to devour you. Let things play out in reality, rather than your mind. You’ll find they’ll usually resolve themselves a lot more peacefully than you imagined. Allowing yourself to get worked up only fuels your ire again and again. It isn’t worth it. Why make yourself crazy?
Fitness yoga is a great way to get back into the swing of things, and can adjusted for each individual to be as simple or as difficult as you want it to be. As a bonus, once you get some muscle tone back you can take on more challenging positions that will really get you into shape.
