All birthday’d out

Today I am still suffering the after-effects of the birthday celebrations, I don’t suffer from the traditional hangover-like headaches and sickness. For me, it’s more mental torture. After feeling on top of the world last week, I spent yesterday feeling fuzzy and exhausted and today swinging between tears and anger.

I decided not to wallow, which is easy to think about but not so easy to follow through with.

Firstly I didn’t allow myself to listen to that inner voice and talk myself out of my morning routine. I know my meditation and self-reflection are beneficial, so even if I have to cry whilst doing it, it’s getting done. I then forced myself into the shower, got dressed and walked to the shop to get some fresh air and more importantly some crusty rolls, which I fancied for lunch. I then allowed myself an afternoon nap as I was shattered, but I felt slightly better and I went back up to the sanctuary and scheduled my first newsletter to go out on Substack tomorrow.

Although my body still feels in ruins, my mindset has taken a massive turn for the better, the arrival of another birthday gift also helped 😉
