Okay so I am late again with this thing but this week its not completely my fault. My department, usually 3 people but currently 2, was given a project that had to be completed. I have worked everyday since last Tuesday with 3 days being 12 hours each, not including tonight. UGG! Things should calm down this week and I have a random day off which will help. All that being said here are my thoughts on the questions for this week.
Last week I really enjoyed the exercise and would do it again. It was a little unconventional for me but I enjoyed it over. This week I was so mentally distracted that I don't know that I was able to reap the benefits of the exercise, try as I might. Most days when I attempted it I fell asleep and didn't finish. In some ways that was probably good because I was exhausted this week. I wish I had more to share on it because overall this seems to be a little more up my alley and I really need to learn how to declutter my mind. I am hoping to use it this coming week so I can try to post a little more on it next week as an add on.
I am a walking example of the mind/body connection this week. I have been so torn in so many directions for the past 7 days and everything about me is suffering as a result. My mind won't shut off so I am not sleeping well even though I am having a hard getting up. I am cranky and short with people and I physically ache. Having learned more and more about the connection between the mind and body you would think that I would make time to balance things out. Knowing something and doing it are not always the same thing. From my past experiences I know that when I take time for me, whether its to exercise, ride a bike, read a book or just spend some time alone to process I am a much better person both in personality, appearance and mental alertness. Now I just need to force myself to make the time.
