Spent my break today creating a bit more parking near the office instead of going to the gym. It's strength training, cardio and community service all at once!

It's also super satisfying to whittle down a snowbank by tossing it on a sunny road, you can do a lot in 15 mins.

Check out the video posted yesterday for a few tips! I'll highlight in this picture the secondary tool of an ice chipper to break up things before shoveling.

*Note: Somerville regulations state to only shovel snow into the street when it's 40 or warmer and during daylight. The bit I did this morning was gone by lunch!

With this much snow even the best shoveling technique can leave you sore!

You're in luck, after rescheduling folks Monday I now have capacity for a few more appointments this week on Wednesday and Thursday.

Just some ideas to get you started if you're not sure what to do before dealing with snow removal. A little preparation can save you a lot of aches later.

Once you get moving, notice anywhere that still feels like it needs to get limbered up and give that a few minutes of attention as well.

If any of these are unfamiliar, a quick search will give you examples.
Always listen to your body if anything doesn't feel suitable!

It's a winter wonderland out there which means you likely need to do some shoveling.

A few reminders:
Warm up! Shoveling is great exercise and is best approached as such.

Slow and steady is the safest way to get the job done. Overfilling the shovel is an easy way to get injured.

Try to not twist your lower back or wrists by dumping the shovel, use a jabbing motion instead. This snow is sticky, regularly tap the shovel on a hard surface to reduce unnecessary weight.

Careful out there, it's slippery!

One important aspect of this I think people forget is to keep your hands out of your pockets so grab your gloves ❄️

A new table warmer for my already cozy office felt a bit superfluous but gifts are often like that: something that makes life more enjoyable. 

If you're still looking for that perfect way to make someone's life more enjoyable, gift certificates for massage are a great option! You can choose a dollar amount or service. 

Or maybe you're the person who could use a massage - two sessions just opened up this week: 10am Tuesday and Wednesday.

I'm back from the topics of Rwanda and wow am I happy my office is super cozy! Regardless of if you've had a break to warmer climates: it's cold out there!

A small thing you can do in winter to help reduce upper body tension is to wear a scarf. Keeping the draft off your shoulders and neck gives one less reason for your shoulders to try and kiss your ears.

This week is full, there is availability for either a one hour session next Tuesday or 90 minutes or Thursday (it's an either or situation as I'm close to max hours for the week).

If you are hoping for a session before EOY I suggest scheduling soon!

I've got space for one more session next week on either Tuesday or Thursday, then I'm off on an adventure!

The second week of December (when I return) is available for scheduling and starting to fill in.

One of my favorite ways to cope with DST and earlier sunsets is to prioritize a walk during the day.

Even a quick trip around the block is helpful, though I'm lucky to work close to the Alewife Brook for days when I have a bit more time between sessions.

Speaking of evenings, there are only 4 evening appointments left for November!
