WEEK 88 - POST 2
It's usually Thursday's that I do this update. But I'm feeling rather unfocused at this moment (8:30 am). I'm trying to think back to some of my somatics teachings and recall an exercise that might be helpful with this "stuckness". Just a bit blah, unmotivated energy, etc. So I'm turning to writing (which is what I've always done) and just like that - it reminds me that the inactive writing (knee-jerk reaction) needs to be replaced with a knowing that I need movement. That this "stuckness" is just energy wanting to move.
Realization (reaching for somatics) is a good subtle change!
I'm stuck on this moment (oh no I don't want to work, oh no I'll never want to work again, etc) thinking that it defines me. But I need to switch it around and just see it as a guide of what I need right now. It's a moment, things are always changing and I can help the change by moving - flowing with the energy.
yay.
Good things: came up at 9 pm last night to do some coaching exercises rather than stay down and watch more tv. I'm hoping at some point, this moves into yoga, but still unmotivated to do that. Cardio did happen - very happy about that and I'm going to fit that in today too. But my schedule is still a bit off as my partner is sleeping in (our elliptical is in the bedroom). Hopefully I'll graduate to having a couple of options in the morning further down the road in this new exercise lifestyle. I'm playing the long game and forcing nothing, just hoping for a gradual change, inch by inch.
And yes, the life coaching, exercise - I know that all of this helps the business.
don't you agree!!
(Sometimes I think that the older you are the more layers you may have and that it's easier to get back up when younger. But maybe it has something to do with my personality and characteristics, things just get stuck deeper? Who knows! At least we're working on it!)
OK - I have a phone call at 9:30 and then I want to do my movement and doing all my morning routine (after that). It will end up being a short day but hopefully productive. And I have two full days after that, that are clear and after that, there should really be minimal demands. There may be a few but I can really determine priorities myself at that point.
Sorry for a long Wednesday entry!! But I guess it's all good - we're processing, figuring things out, working with what we have.
Today will be whatever it wants to be and then I'll get back at it after this!!
xo
How are things going for you??
