Ran this morning for the first time this week. Between Christmas show prep and my mom being in the burn unit off and on, writing a script and generally trying to keep the kids alive it’s been a week. Each morning it was a decision to sleep instead of get up and work out. Not sure it was the right decision but it’s done.
As I was running and not wanting to run I was thinking of the kids who complain about their show costumes all the time and how dang annoying it is. I was thinking about this at minute 17. I then thought certainly I can spend 30 minutes today on making my body stronger and move it and marvel in its ability.
Then then thought came. Certainly I can spend 30 minutes on my mental health and 30 minutes on my spiritual health each day. This shouldn’t be hard. Just like I don’t run for distance anymore I just set aside time and then the pressure is off. The same thing can apply to the other areas. Instead of trying to decide what to do and how much I can just set aside time and fill it with what brings joy or interest in that area. Simple way to reset. Now to do it.
