july 1st ✨🫶🌸

happy july! here’s to opening a new chapter to this book called “Life”

here are som goals i’d like to reach for this new season ◡̈

❤️ Do cardio before / after every workout!

this is something I’ve found myself slipping on due to me sleeping in before work and not having enough time for both weight training and cardio. So this means i’ll have to make sure I wake up a bit earlier to reach this goal.

📚 Read 2-3 books

Y’all know I have found myself in quite some reading slumps, however I would like to finish the one I’m currently reading (Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil b V.E Schwab) and then hopefully two others. I have most of my books back in my possession but they’re in my car and need to come out. Hopefully this can also help me get my at home library built this month as well ◡̈

👩🏽‍🍳 Intentionally cook and meal prep every week

Ya girl is a snacker. And I think it has shown in my gains 😬 so to offset that, I want to meal prep not only my main dishes but also what snacks I eat through the day (or night if I’m working). I was doing WAY too well to fall off now.

⛪️ Go to church more frequently

I’ve been wanting to get back in touch with going to church and reading the Bible. I’ve gone to church about twice and watched it some on the days I work but I want to be more intentional and really understand my faith.

💓 Have a good birthday / birthday month.

I’ve expressed before how so get the birthday blues so I want to make the most out of my bday and bday month! (Even though this goal is literally in 4 days 😂)Hanging out with my friends, taking myself out on dates, finding the fun and joy in all things. Just overall being happy and doing what I love with WHO I love ◡̈

What are some of your goals for this new month? Anything you carrying with you from June or leaving behind?

... Read moreAs July begins, many of us take the time to reflect on our goals and aspirations. The summer season brings a unique opportunity to reconnect with ourselves and set intentions that foster well-being and growth. One vital aspect of personal development is incorporating regular physical activity into our routines. For instance, integrating cardiovascular exercise into daily workouts can enhance overall fitness levels and mood. Along with physical health, nurturing the mind through reading can lead to increased knowledge and improved cognitive function. Setting realistic reading goals, like finishing a few books, can create a fulfilling reading habit that adds depth to our lives. On the other hand, meal prepping is not just a trend but a lifestyle choice that supports better nutrition and budgeting. By intentionally preparing meals and snacks, we can avoid impulsive eating, especially during busy weeks. Furthermore, rekindling a spiritual connection, whether through attending church or studying religious texts, can provide comfort and community, enriching our lives. As we celebrate birthdays or special milestones, it's essential to prioritize joy by engaging in activities that uplift us and spending quality time with loved ones. So, as we step into July, let's embrace these goals and strive for a month filled with positivity and growth. What are your aspirations for this beautiful summer month? Whether it's fitness, reading, cooking, or spiritual exploration, sharing our goals can inspire and motivate us all!
