Yesterday, my normal writing/recording day, was a tough day in every sense. I didn’t sleep the night before (literally) and I struggled. I felt like I was dragging my soul behind me. I won’t go into details but I’m pretty sure we all know what it feels like to be beyond exhausted from lack of sleep.
I wouldn’t wish sleep depravation on my worst enemy and I say that having no enemies that I’m aware of.
I gave myself the day off. I didn’t really have a choice. When you need to go somewhere but your car has four flats, you just don’t go!
Today, on my way home from a very short walk through the almost melted forest, I recorded a little something for you, simply sharing how I’ve come to really ‘try’ to pay attention to what my body says it needs.
I don’t always get a good answer but I ask nonetheless.
Enjoy. It’s a short pondering. Tell me what you think.
I offer you presence in all things. Thanks for being here…I appreciate you.
Elisabeth…
My personal philosophy…“I question therefore I am.”
Yes to giving ourselves a day off!!! I’m listening more closely to my body and mind. Thank you 🤍
“ these bodies, we are put into to experience life.“— I think that’s what you said. I love that, and I especially love that you did not take your walk on Sunday, because I didn’t take my walk on Monday. And now I can take this for another stroll today! It’s funny, I just had to tell myself “no“ to Substack for a few days, and just give my mind some time to rest, even though I love your posts, and those of all my friends. I’ve had bouts of sleeplessness and yeah, they suck. I hope you get some rest soon, Elizabeth. And thanks for the perfect timing!
