Are you in?
On December 2nd, we kicked off a new DAILY challenge in our Vibely virtual community for us to complete together this month!
I’ve been working through the EPIC 3 series by @carolinegirvan since the start of September, and much like when I did NaNoWrimo (a challenge to write a book in a month), I found imagining thousands of other people around the world waking up a little earlier each day just like you to make progress towards a shared goal to be unbelievably fun.

I haven’t quite figured out the reason for it, but I think it’s partly because of the reminder that you don’t need anything special – motivation, inspiration, perfect environment – to make those tiny steps. Just a bit of determination to show up! Plus, seeing someone else do things makes you feel like you can, too!



SO I invite you to join me for the final month of the 2021!
december 1st journal entry
I mentioned in my last post that I’ve felt drained as the school semester comes to a close, but today I did my first workout in a week. My plan for the rest of the month is to work through the holiday series that @carolinegirvan will be uploading for the next 24 days, as they’re a more manageable 20-30 min, and intersperse the remaining 14 EPIC 3 full-length workouts I have left. I’m anticipating a few days off for lighter movement/recovery, so that makes 30 days.
Here’s the first video in the series I’m doing:
The challenge is on Vibely and runs for the ENTIRE month up to December 31st, so go check it out and let us know if you’re IN!
You can start at absolutely any time – so join in right in the middle, if you want.



my mindset towards rest days
My mindset if I choose to skip a day is to replace it with a different activity (walk!) or rest (sleep!), and pick up where I left off the next day.
Since our challenge is for a fixed period, count the rest days as part of the 30 days, since they’re just as important as the high-intensity days!
When we’re done, you can keep working through the workouts you have left in order at your own pace. (But that’s just my approach!)



our vibely community
Have you heard of our Vibely community yet?



If not, Vibely is our very first Mistral Spirit virtual space, complete with a Virtual Café and weekly Challenges that we complete together. It has three purposes:
- As a space to connect, share perspectives, and learn from each other.
- An inspiration hub. Through the challenges, we’ll curate some of the best advice, inspiration, and creativity from all the assorted thinkers & curious minds who also love the essence behind Mistral Spirit.
- A source of action. With a community of like-minded individuals, we can stay accountable to our goals and grounded with our expectations.
It’s also a platform that is focused on positivity and is accessible to everyone! If you don’t have access to Facebook, or Instagram, you can join our community and take part in building relationships and working towards your goals with us.
