A new month means a new set of goals!
Can you believe it's already November?
It's also my last month in England - a bittersweet realization I had yesterday. It will be great to be home and get back to work and school, but this has been a fantastic experience.
Before I get into November's goals, let's review last month's goals and how I did:
1. Do Yoga Every Day
Some days I only did one pose, some days was a full on practice, and some days were in between.
But wow. Going from NO yoga routine to daily practice is such a big deal for me.
A big reason I kept up with this goal was participating in the #sizedoesntmatterchallenge hosted by
@yogimj and
@biggalyoga last month! My yoga repertoire has expanded along with my flexibility due to this challenge, which is why I added it as one of this month's goals.
2. #lovetober
A few days were skipped or missed, but I totally did it!!
I am horrible with following through on photo challenges, but Gala Darling's #lovetober was not one of them. Waking up and checking the days prompt was such a joy as was picking out the perfect picture. I can't wait for her next photo challenge.
3. Go to a Pumpkin Patch
Well... this kind of happened.
Due to the weather and wetness in England, pumpkin patches aren't especially doable. But we made it to a nearby garden center and picked out the perfect pumpkins!
So, I would call this a success.
4. Carve Pumpkins
I definitely carved a pumpkin.
Thankfully carving it "well" was not a goal. :P
5. Organize Blog
If you look to your left, under the blog's title, you will see I have added and removed various links to my social media profiles.
If you are interested in following me on tumblr, twitter, google+, or pinterest, they are all there!
You will see a link to facebook, because I hope to one day create a Facebook page for this space. But for now it is an empty link. Sorry about that!
At the bottom of any page, you'll find the menu bar. Not the most convenient place, but the best I can do for now.
I have added an About page!

I am beyond pleased with myself for nailing every goal I had, and I'm excited to tackle the five for this month.
Here they are -
1. #sizedoesntmatter Yoga Challenge
I enjoyed this yoga challenge so much in October that I want to keep it going.
I'll be participating with many other women of various colors and sizes for the next month guided by the beautiful and inspiring hosts
@mynameisjessamyn and
@yoga_davina. Maybe you'll join?
You can follow along with me
here!
2. Do Yoga Practice by Video Three Times a Week
Because I kept up with a daily yoga practice for a whole month, I want to push myself a little more.
With #sizedoesntmatter, I'll still be doing yoga almost every day, but I'm going to set aside three days a week to use guided yoga videos for enhanced practices. I'm hoping this will build my strength and flexibility even more!
3. Brave Love
Mara Glatzel gifted me with a spot in the newest session of her course Brave Love.
I want to dive heart first into the coming prompts, videos, and emails over the next three weeks.
4. Organize The Categories and Tags
This goal was originally to be completed last month alongside my about page and links, but I never got around to it. So, this month I shall clean up all the categories and tags floating around here to make finding posts applicable to YOU a lot easier.
5. Visit Stonehenge
Since this is my last month in England, I have to have a travel goal!
Our plans are to see Stonehenge mid-November, and I cannot wait!
I'm very excited for this month's five goals. Here's to you, November! And you, my friends.
How did you do with goals last month? What are some new one's you're setting for the end of the year?
