Getting Started With My Virgo Health Plan
Woke up Monday thinking about Susyn Blair Hunt’s Virgo health tips. Figured I should try her easy routines since my gym membership’s been gathering dust. Dug out my yoga mat from under the bed – thing was covered in cat hair, spent ten minutes vacuuming it first.
The Morning Routine Struggle
Tuesday morning set my alarm 20 minutes early for her “mindful movement” thing. Almost smashed the snooze button but dragged myself up. Did those simple stretches she recommended near my window: five sun salutations feeling like a rusty tin man. My coffee tasted better afterwards though – weird how bending sideways makes espresso smoother.
Snack Attack Solutions
Wednesday hit that 3pm slump hard. Normally I’d raid the vending machine. Instead tried her Virgo-friendly snack ideas:
- Chopped apples with almond butter
- Cucumber slices with hummus
- Actual water instead of soda (shocking!)
Surprisingly didn’t miss my usual candy bar. Felt less bloated during Zoom meetings too.
The Water Bottle Experiment
Thursday committed to her hydration trick. Filled four water bottles last night, lined them up on the counter like little soldiers. Every time I passed the kitchen, chugged one. Made eleven bathroom trips – my coworkers probably think I’ve got bladder issues. But man, my skin looks less like lizard skin today.
Friday Night Unwind Test
Tried her “decompression ritual” instead of scrolling TikTok. Lit that candle I got for Christmas 2019, played nature sounds on my phone. My cat gave me judgmental looks while I laid on the floor breathing deeply. Lasted 15 minutes before my brain started drafting grocery lists. Still… fell asleep faster than usual.
The Verdict
Honestly? Small changes actually stacked up. Felt less cranky by Saturday despite not overhauling my whole life. That water thing’s annoying but works. Might stick with the morning stretches – if I ignore how ridiculous I look in pajamas doing downward dog. Biggest takeaway? You don’t need fancy gear to feel better. Just that dusty yoga mat and remembering where your water tap is.
