In a personal financial course I took many years ago, I learned to build an "emergency fund" by putting some money into savings each time I got paid. Even if the amount I could afford was small, it was important to do it regularly. Otherwise the money was gone by next payday.
Financial advisors have these crazy graphics about how much someone will have after 30 years of investing just $100 a month. It's quite astonishing and shows the time value of money. This concept is that $1 now is worth more than $1 in the future because of its earning potential.
What if the investment you make is not to a stock account, but your health? Our bodies benefit more from consistent regular movement. The same thing applies for other things that affect our health, such as food, water, sleep, stress management, etc. Your investment is your time, money, and effort applied.
As they say, something is better than nothing. However, when it comes to your health, a little every day is better than large sporadic amounts. Imagine trying to eat one giant meal every 3 days!
That's why I encourage you to practice some yoga on your own at home, even if you come to class weekly.
What's one thing you can do regularly that would improve or maintain your health? Maybe you do 2 favorite stretches from class that help you feel less stiff. Or grab your favorite water bottle in the morning and drink water throughout the day to stay hydrated.
If you want to practice yoga with me , I provide many options, including group classes or 1-on-1 sessions via Zoom or in-person, and video recordings.
