With many ups and downs, January was a fantastic month!

For January I had two habits in mind. Meditating 20-30 times per month and going out into the nature at least once a week.

I am on a 36 day meditation streak and I have learned a lot about myself :) I also understood very well that taking the time for something like this (10-20 minutes a day) is not hard, I just have to really want it.

Going into nature once a week has been going good. The first 3 weeks I only made it to some short 2-3 hour walks around the city. Last week I went deeper into the Odenwald for a 3 hour dusk-night walk. Got to challenge my fear of dark forest a little bit!

I am planning my walk for today/tomorrow right now. I wonder where I should go...

I had two additional habits that I want to follow but decided to not go for all 4 at once. After the third January week I started running again and that worked out the last 2 weeks to (2-3 times a week) and I am noticing how good it feels.

The next habit I am going to tackle will be in 2 weeks.

I also reduced my cannabinoid intake. Noticed that the amounts that I was consuming we making me lose focus very easily and be constantly tired.

Thank you for setting this up rezzeJ!
