How to Make Your Life Better in Ten Minutes
Let’s start a slow down revolution.
Once upon a time, a 100 Day Experiment saved my life.
I know that sounds dramatic–but it’s absolutely true.
In 2013, I took a ten-day trip to New York City with my daughter. I came home in so much pain that I couldn’t put my own pants on. My husband literally had to pull my pants up for me. For months.
Around that time, I started snoring at night so loud that my poor husband had to wear ear plugs so he could sleep. (We just celebrated our sixteenth anniversary, so our marriage did survive 2013. He is a patient man.)
He was afraid for me, because besides snoring, I also stopped breathing in my sleep.
I was sick. So sick. Everything hurt all the time. My whole body was swollen and miserable. I weighed nearly 400 pounds and I was starting to have trouble moving, to the point that I was truly worried about my mobility. I was so tired that I could barely function.
In desperation, I decided to try exercising for 10 minutes a day for a hundred days. I don’t know where those numbers came from, but I committed myself to ten minutes of exercise every day for 100 days.
