I was talking to a client last week who told me something that really stuck with me. She said that she was dreading going to bed because she knew it was going to be struggle to fall asleep. As soon as her head hit the pillow, her mind was going crazy. Replaying her day, worrying about the next, redoing conversations at work...

The widespread belief is that we become physically tired when we reach our muscular limits. The muscles run out of oxygen, or start to suffer damage from the build-up of waste products like lactic acid (if you have ever held a Warrior 2 for over one...
Sooo... How many yoga or gym routines have you tried? I've done it all. I committed to a new routine I saw on Instagram. And I managed... what, four days? Before I had to travel, had an early meeting, or let's be honest... just couldn't be arsed to get out of bed. And then I thought: "The problem is me. I lack discipline.
