In keeping with the upcoming holiday, I have a Halloween theme for the blog posts this week. Today being Manic Monday, I thought some tips to destress would be helpful. Perhaps a workout. (UGH!) With the yummy food we are all about to eat over the next two months, which I am blessed and thankful to have an abundant table, I think a little added movement with a festive theme is on tap.

Grab an empty gallon jug of water or milk and get crafty! A simple face made with a Sharpie can transform your empty jug into a cute or creepy ghost. Turn on the tap and fill that baby up! A gallon of water is about 7 pounds so its a moderate weight. Want to start half way? Sure, just remember that your movements will make the water sway inside the bottle and cause a momentum shift. Just a tip for those with balance issues like me!

I mean how cute is this?!

Don’t have any empties lying around? Grab those pumpkins you have decorating the house. Why not make it fun?! All the stress will just melt away. Found this cute lil workout from Happy Food Healthy Life.

Yup…time to work on my arms for sure!

Happy Manic Monday!
