Wow! Quite a heat wave here and lots of smoke from Colorado fires. None are very near to me, thankfully, but the air is filled with smoke. Drove to Denver this morning as my husband had a doctor appointment. Took a toll road, which was really helpful. Not much traffic. It took a few minutes longer, and cost a bit, but totally worth it.
So looking forward to the exercise bike that is in transit to us. It is way too hot and smoky to be outside right now, so this is a great alternative. I plan on watching some great classes and hearing some wonderful Ted Talks and podcasts which pedaling away. This body really needs some exercise. My longing is for embodied presence and that is not easy when the physical body is yearning to move. I trust that even with some pain in muscles not used for a time, great joy and freedom will also arise. I am ready to be fully here.
