2/18 Whole Life Wednesday

Becky demonstrates a strong punch to the sky at the top of her kettlebell snatch. 
This week's Whole Life Challenge lifestyle challenge is to do something you love for 10 minutes every day. Sounds simple, and wonderful doesn't it? I was surprised at how difficult it was for me to think of something I truly love doing, that I could do for 10 minutes a day. I had no problem thinking of all of my physical pursuits, CrossFit, yoga, skiing, climbing, cycling, etc. But I found it more difficult to think of one simple, non-adrenaline charged thing that I love to do. 


As I pondered this, I realized I wanted to incorporate simplicity into my life. Most of the things I love to do are complex, and perhaps complicated. I realized that there is value in enjoying simple pleasures. So, to incorporate this week's WLC lifestyle challenge, I have enjoyed a leisurely walk around a pond and a few moments of sitting quietly in the sun (sipping a wonderful wine). What are you doing for this week's challenge? What simple thing do you love to do?
