Progress Report #1

For this progress report, I’ve committed to exercising five days a week. At 55 years old, I’ve started noticing some shifts in my health, and I know it’s time to take better care of my body and overall well-being. My goal isn’t just about fitness—it’s about becoming a healthier, more balanced version of myself.

There are three main reasons I chose this commitment. First, I want to feel better physically. As I get older, I’ve realized how important it is to keep moving so my body doesn’t become stiff or achy. Movement really is medicine. Second, I need this for my mental health. After losing my husband to cancer, I’ve struggled with depression and anxiety. Walking outside helps ease the anxiety, grounds me in the present moment, and lets my mind rest. Lastly, this commitment supports my spiritual health. When I walk, it gives me time to reflect, listen to spiritual music, pray, or just be quiet and connected with nature. That’s healing in itself.

I’ve promised myself to walk at least one mile a day, five days a week. I prefer to walk the back roads, away from busy streets and people. There, I feel more relaxed and at peace. This small habit is a step toward bringing balance into my life—physically, mentally, and spiritually. I plan to do this walk every morning, right after I have my coffee, Monday through Friday. If I can fit in Saturday or Sunday too, that’s a bonus.

Lately, things have been heavy, and I believe this routine will help me feel more grounded. I know it won’t fix everything, but it’s a start. I also think this will help with school stress and give me a chance to reset each day. I’m ready for this challenge and hopeful that it will help me move forward in a really positive way.
