Barefoot & On the Mat, September 2021 - "Do you remember...September!"
Happy September! I didn't see a new checkin so decided to start one. Who remembers the old Earth, Wind, & Fire song?
This checkin is for ANYONE and EVERYONE who enjoys ANY type of barefoot workouts, including yoga, Pilates, Classical Stretch/Essentrics, kickboxing, kettlebells, barefoot cardio, whatever - we welcome all! We are a friendly group of diverse ages and backgrounds. Post your workouts or not, we don't care...we'd love to have you join us in any capacity! Here's a quote I like for September: "The windows are open, admitting the September breeze: a month that smells like notepaper and pencil shavings, autumn leaves, and car oil. A month that smells like progress and moving on." ~Lauren Oliver

Replies from yesterday:
Pat, I do easier Pilates stuff because I can't keep up otherwise! I love hearing about your nature discoveries. Paine, it made me sad to hear that your grandson was scared of starting school. How did it go? cyana, I guess it's too late to banish the furry creature to another part of the house? I'm really liking the Senior Shape stuff, although she has high expectations for "beginner." Sandra, oh no on the smoke AND the cold - rest up! Hope everyone else is doing okay (where has Pam been?) as we move into September (already?) - Happy September and Happy Wednesday!

Pat, I thought Pam might be glamping again but was wondering because she often checks in even then.
If you search "go back to sleep" on Youtube, there are some videos...but I know most people don't want to whip out a video in the middle of the night. https://www.youtube.com/results?sear...+back+to+sleep

Thank you all for consoling me over losing Zippy. He picked up Moxie’s role as yoga cat, often coming in to do some yoga with me or with DH. I’m channeling his spirit for now when I do yoga until I get another cat trained to enjoy some Savasana with me. I have good days and some sad, emotional days, but gradually DH and I are gradually adjusting the this new normal of being a cat-less household. And yes, we’ve already talked about getting 1 or 2 cats, but we aren’t ready yet.
I did Jessica’s Bikini Body from YouTube yesterday and have some major DOMS in my glutes and thighs today. I plan on stretching yoga this evening and perhaps a cardio or upper body workout as I recover. I also did Day 12 of Kassandra’s morning yoga challenge from 2020. Beth: Thanks for starting us off this month and including a reference to one of my favorite songs, September! Your new webpage looks fantastic! I like the fonts and colors. cyana: I’m glad you enjoyed your time off and hope that your workload eases up sometime soon. Thanks for sharing links to Leonid and EW&F singing September. Pam: I’m glad you got an accurate diagnosis and a course of treatment to help your “dead butt.” Time for family and hiking sounds like a success! Sandra: Sorry about your cold. How is your knee doing? Hope the smoke clears up soon, but the fires seem especially bad this year. Paine: Glad to hear that your grandson’s first day back at school went ok. I am slowly adjusting to being back at work, but still getting used to it. I couldn't remember the log-in for the Reference Computer at work after being away for so long. Pat: Yoga with Bird yoga in bed practice sounds like a winner! Low humidity days are nice! It was much more humid in Payson than our home in the Phoenix area. But it was much cooler and more conducive to walks, especially in the evening. Garrie: I loved seeing the pictures of your new workout space (and all that great fitness equipment!) at your new home. Glad you and your SO are enjoying the new place! Good luck with new semester rush at the bookstore. Seems quieter at my school as a lot of classes are still online and many others are hybrid.
