My Actifit Report Card: August 7 2021

I

As I write these reports each day it allows me to sit down and ponder about the things that have happened during the day. Most days I do not do anything as I work as a freelance content writer who hardly works now and since the pandemic, all my other activities have come to a halt.

 

Today I woke up early and by early I mean early. I woke up at around 3 AM and I have been keeping myself busy with productive things. I have been exercising, breathing, meditating, and taking a lot of naps that end up into full-fledged sleep, lol.

 

So, when I slept last night my intention was just to rest my head and then go take a shower before I slept but my mind had different plans. I fell asleep early and I woke up at 3 AM.

 

 I took a shower at 3 AM and I begin my day with a fresh start. It was refreshing and made me feel better and hopeful. I started my computer and I wrote a post and watched some tv shows.

 

I have been watching the Nancy Drew tv series and it has got me glued to it. It is not very slow for my taste but the suspense is killing me. I am a curious person and I cannot control my curious mind from asking all those questions about the show. I watched an episode and I moved ahead with the next task at hand.

 

I turned to Youtube and I found what I was looking for. I have been training my voice to make it deeper. Yes, I want to have a voice that is deeper and sounds like those tv trailer guys. There are a lot of Youtubers who have published a lot of tutorials for training our voice.

 

I started a video on the Indian Music School Youtube channel and started the Humming lesson. They say that humming helps in making our voice deeper and gives it a better resonance. 

 

I think it will be good if I just share the links to my favorite voice channels.

I follow these channels because they share honest and useful training sessions. 

 

I started humming and it was helpful. It has been a few days since I have taken this seriously and I hope to develop a deeper voice. But you might ask me what am I planning to do with this voice?

 

I do not know. I do things because I love doing them. I do not think much about the future and I just go with the flow. I talk on stages and I think having a deeper voice will help me hold my audience’s attention.

 

I might also start a Youtube channel where I might speak and share my thoughts with the world. In the past, I have had several Youtube channels where I did different things but I either ended up losing interest or the channels did not get any traction.

I have been trying to eat better and I have been buying a lot of vegetables. Today I went to the vegetable market at around 8 AM and bought a few vegetables. I got a lot of cucumbers as they are low on carbohydrates and have some really good nutrients.

 

Once I was back home with the vegetables I went straight to the kitchen and washed a few cucumbers and ate them. I also ate half a plate of sprouts with a little pink salt sprinkled on it.

 

I recently got a kilogram of pink salt. I have been hearing a lot about it and they say that it has a lot of minerals that will help our body. I have high blood pressure and I have been looking at ways to get it on the safer side. I have almost halved my salt intake. 

 

When I was at the vegetable market I also learned that the new Chief Minister of our state has announced weekend lockdown and all the vegetable vendors were in a hurry to finish their sales by the 10 AM deadline and rush home safely. 

 

COVID cases have gone down but the government is trying to be safe and I think that a weekend curfew is useful for us all.

 

At the end of the day, I feel pretty tired and I think I might get some good sleep tonight. I will take a shower soon and I will be in bed by 12:30 AM.

 

I was able to complete my daily Actifit goal today and it did not take much effort today as I was in the market buying vegetables and I took a stroll in the morning. I aim to do this every day and one good thing about waking up early and earlier than everyone is that I have the bathroom all for myself and I can spend as much time as I wish under the shower. 

 

I have been walking and every morning the first thing I do after I wake up is warm up my feet. It has become one of the most important parts of my day-to-day life and I am trying to make it a habit.

 

Stretching and warming up my feet is very important because if I do not do it then I risk the chance of hurting my feet again. This year in February I had hurt my foot by being too ignorant about stretching. 

 

Our bodies are very complex and we must always be careful with them. I think that warming up should be 25% of our overall exercise. It stretches the muscles and tells the tendons to prepare for the upcoming exercise. This way the body prepares for the workout.

 

I aim to write at least 1000 words daily and I might soon start writing a daily diary that I see so many people write here on Steemit.

 

That’s all that happened with me today and I will be back tomorrow with more about my life and what’s happening around.
