Ladies and gentlemen...listen to your bodies!!!! Find that healthy balance of exercise, sleep, work, personal life, and leisurely activities. Don't do too much of any of those without keeping up the rest. I am sick yet again, this time...it's pretty bad! It's because I have run myself into the ground...working too hard yet trying to maintain the rest of my schedule because I wasn't willing to give that up. Add in a few snotty kisses, coughs, and sneezes and VOILA...a sick me.
After I get better I swear to cut back on the extra work...spend more time on myself and gain control over my life again. I am a fairly high strung person and I used to practice yoga, a LOT, to keep my excess energy and stress at bay. Once we moved I tried to keep at it by doing it at home which was working for the most part but not as well as being in a studio. Lately, I have let that fall off my daily schedule and it has become very apparent. I need that mind clearing relaxation. My gym offers it 2 nights a week so I may start there and attempt to do it at home again in the evenings.
My life has been a whirlwind of CHAOS lately...I still squeeze everything into a day but I'm killing myself trying to do it...so now, I am taking a break...from work, from babysitting, from running, from lifting weights, from everything...just until my body heals itself over the next couple days.
