February Goals



January came and went and surprisingly I've kept some of my resolutions: number one being to get back in pre-baby shape (duh). I have seen in a few of my favorite blogs a pretty neat post where they have made small monthly goals to work on throughout the entire month. Making a list of resolutions at the beginning of the year can be bewildering and let's be serious...they last for about a week or as a thought in our mind that quickly passes. Come on you know what I'm talking about, "I'm going to eat super healthy for the entire year," until you see the nachos at one of your favorite restaurants and let's be serious, how can you resist? You chalk it up to the simple idea that indulgences should be allowed every once in a while, until indulgences become every day and then that beginning of the year resolution has quickly lost its meaning and has been forgotten. Back to what I was saying...I really like the idea of small monthly goals to work on things slowly and one step at a a time, to make some small changes.

So here goes. 

1. De-Clutter. Since the holidays have ended and we've taken down the decorations, I've been in a crazy frenzy to de-clutter our home (specifically my closet). One of my goals this month is to completely de-clutter my closet and take into consideration the capsule wardrobe that I have been researching and will be blogging about soon. I want to get rid of things I don't wear any more, organize my closet, and make room for some staple pieces for the spring and summer. 

2. Unplug (a little). I think this is super important and speaks for itself. We take so much time taking photos, videos, face-timing, posting photos and videos, scrolling through tweets and instagrams...while life is kind of moving on around us. I need to take a day every here and there and just unplug from it all and enjoy what's going on around me. 

3. Yoga. I absolutely love yoga and before I was pregnant, I started going to classes here in San Antonio to meet people. After I found out I was pregnant, I started doing prenatal yoga because the studio I regularly went to, unfortunately didn't offer prenatal classes at the time. I have been slowly getting back into working out after being cleared by my doctor. I have started running again, doing some strength training, doing yoga at home but really want to start going to classes again. My goal for February is to try to make a class at least once a week in between my other workouts. 

4. Try something new. This goal is vague but it makes the most sense to me. I have realized that I really enjoy myself when I actually go outside of my comfort zone and do something I don't normally do. This month I am determined to try something new, whether it be a new recipe, going somewhere new, trying a new class, etc. Maybe I'll blog about it ; ) 

What are some of your goals? 

Happy Monday!
