It’s been quite a few weeks since I’ve shared a meal plan with you. First, I spent a week cooking with Terra’s Kitchen, then life got crazy and I took off for Florida and then I was lacking motivation to cook when I got home last week.
Honestly, last week was a blur of being back in my normal routine but feeling anything but normal. I hope this week is a little better.

Not the most outstanding week of workouts but it got the job done. Goal for next week is at least 3-4 yoga practices and to lift 2-3 times instead of only once. I’m going to have a de-load week on the running front before I gear up for a half-marathon the next weekend (more on that later) so I think my yoga and lifting goals should be manageable.
Handstand Press Progress
I’ll leave you with this Instagram video from my Power Yoga Flow account. While my workouts were pretty mediocre last week, I had a really special moment in my yoga practice. I finally made progress on my handstand press. I credit it mostly to letting go and dropping walls I’d built up in my head and heart.
(If you’re reading in a RSS reader, you’ll probably have to click through to the post to see the video.)
