I did some self-motivating, self-talk before starting my yoga session. I feel fatigued, tired, and stiff before I start, but after my spirit and mental health feel lifted and I feel motivated for the rest of the day.

Today, I did my favorite online stretching routine. I feel stiff and sore everywhere before I start, but after, I feel like I can move again.

I got moving by going for a walk with the intention of taking some nature photos. I feel stiff, sore, and tired before I start. After, I feel energized, less stiff, and my mood improves.
