Recovery Journey Day 7

๐Ÿง˜๐Ÿพโ€โ™€๏ธ Recovery Flow: Mermaid, Half Moon & Bird

Todayโ€™s recovery session was a 30-minute Body Balance 97 flow at home.

I focused on mobility, core strength, and balance โ€” three things Iโ€™ve been working on since the start of this journey.

Key poses of the day:

  • Standing Mermaid (great for side-body mobility)

  • Half Moon (balance + core activation)

  • Bird Pose (postural control + focus)

This was a gentle, low-impact session, perfect for active recovery.
And yes โ€” my bird flew. ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ

๐Ÿณ Breakfast: Protein, Fats & Focus

This morningโ€™s breakfast was simple, low carb, and full of flavor โ€” just what I needed after my Body Balance session.

  • Cheese omelet โ€“ packed with protein and healthy fats ๐Ÿง€

  • Fresh tomato slices โ€“ light, juicy, and refreshing

  • Strawberries โ€“ a small portion for natural sweetness ๐Ÿ“

  • Espresso โ€“ my lifesaver coffee, always โ˜•๏ธ

This combo keeps my energy steady all morning โ€” no crashes, no cravings.
Itโ€™s balanced, satisfying, and supports both focus and recovery.

  • Sautรฉed green beans โ€“ fiber-rich, low carb, and the perfect side ๐Ÿฅฆ

  • Water + strong coffee โ€“ hydration + focus

๐Ÿ’ฌ Final Thoughts

Todayโ€™s session reminded me how far Iโ€™ve come.
I moved with control, stretched with intention, and I didnโ€™t feel a single trace of pain in my knee.

Thatโ€™s not just progress. Thatโ€™s proof that consistency works.

โœ”๏ธ I moved with confidence
โœ”๏ธ I felt strong in every pose
โœ”๏ธ And I finished the session proud of what my body can do

Recovery isnโ€™t about pushing harder. Itโ€™s about listening, adapting, and showing up โ€” one day at a time.
