Let's get Fit-diculous Take 2

Hi all, I had to take a break from exercise and fitness due to injury (re-separation of my abdominals after healing post natally), however I have begun again, and have found a fantastic, 8-10 minute workout that can be incorporated into our day, so that Stella can also enjoy yoga! I found that she relaxed immensely and laughed and really enjoyed the chance for us to do something fun and physical together. 

I also found that afterwards, Stella was really happy to relax and play independently nearby, whilst I got down to doing a further 20 minutes by myself. She was happy to fall asleep at an earlier bedtime too, which was great, as I've been trying to encourage earlier sleep-rising.

Here is the link, I also did this lovely teachers post natal workout, and felt fantastic for it!

I woke up feeling excited to get some movement again today, and after my green smoothie, water and juice (part of my daily routine to bump up hydration and energy to allow for breastfeeding and general vitality), I decided that I would go for a decent walk in the lovely winter sun, to recharge the vitamin d and the proverbial batteries!

I used a fantastic iPhone App called Map My Walk, which monitored, mapped and encouraged me on my walk, and I was able to save the data and even share it for more friendly motivation! I was extremely surprised, happy and proud to see that a regular walk that I used to do during both pregnancy and straight after giving birth, was actually approx 4km! 

Stella loved getting out and seeing the beautiful flowers and birds which I pointed out along the way, at 5 months she is really taking notice and curious about everything going on around her.

Alphie dog loved it too, and now we can sit back and relax for the rest of our day, as the sun retreats!
