it’s sunday jan 3rd and I’m feeling anxious!
what is causing me to feel this way:
— long as fck to do list for the week ahead
— laundry piling up
— house needs to be cleaned
— feel tired but ego is fighting me on my deservingness of rest
— in luteal phase aka PMS sore boobs low energy just blah
— an overwhelmed underwhelmed feeling in my bones
what I’m doing to help ease this:
— walk with casey & jay. fresh air & nature always soothe my soul
— taking all of my supplements specifically CBD & also ashwagandha because she is nature’s xanax & helps our body adapt to stress
— communicate to casey & my sister how I’m feeling so I’m not living in my own head
— writing down my to do list for the week so it doesn’t take up mental real estate in my brain
— politely ask casey if we can watch the movie Soul even though it’s a sunday and football is on
— showing myself grace & compassion because as exciting as new year can feel it can also bring waves of expectations, deadlines, goals & internalized pressure because our society demands it of us. more on how I am working to move past this to come.
to anyone else who isn’t feeling like their vibrant self today, I see you & i am with you. let’s remove judgement from the conversation and instead recognize that we may feel anxiety but we are not anxiety. it does not define us.
lean into whatever makes you feel 1% better & have faith that this low is here to show you what parts of yourself need some love & attention 🤍
sending love 🕊
