How often do you walk or run?

I walk everyday as I live in a European city & often take public transit. Sometimes on the weekend I go hiking but it depends on how I’m feeling.

I tend to go into my town & do errands during the week & on the weekends we tend to drive when we do our weekly shopping.

I have a crappy knee so running is unfortunately out at the moment. But it won’t stop me from hiking in my neighborhood or on the trails.

Even with my crappy knee I enjoy being outside & getting fresh air, I especially like fall & spring but am not too fond of hiking in warm weather. Or in the heat of the summer.

How do you get fresh air?

If you had to give up one word that you use regularly, what would it be?

Like because it makes you sound dumb & serious because it’s over used. Even in my native tongue, “serr” is so over used & in American English like is over used.

Like don’t you like, like my blog. Gross. I sound like I’m from the valley in Los Angeles & I have a college degree.

By replacing those over used words with something intelligent you sound smarter. By overusing those words your vocabulary sounds limiting & frankly you come off as stupid.

Next time you want to use the word like try breathing & thinking about what or how you want to come across.

How do you relax?

I start by putting away my mobile & shutting off the TV. Then I grab a book & start reading. Right now it’s The Let Them Theory & I really like it.

I also find it relaxing when we go on our Sunday walks with our dogs around the lake by our house. Listening to the quiet of the woods & talking about whatever topic comes to mind.

I find doing laundry soothing & sorting & starting the machine. Knowing the clothes will come out clean at the end of it.

Another way I relax is by journaling in my personal journal, where I write about whatever is on my mind. I find it a great stress relief to journal.

How do you disconnect from our current global discontent?
