I’m right there with you. Letting my mind take over usually ends up in me doing nothing. I’m trying to have grace for myself, as a chronic over-doer, that it’s okay to leave things sometimes.

But I do feel better when I actually just get up and do the thing instead of just thinking about doing the thing!

Today, I decided to get out of bed, get ready, make my tea, and sit on my patio in the early morning sun instead of laying in bed forever 💕

Love your journey and looking forward to your change 😊

It's so easy to swing from doing too little to doing too much! I'm still trying to find that balance. Getting an early start really does seem to help. Your morning sounds lovely!

Thanks for inviting us into the intimacy of your morning landscape. I can identify with much of what you shared about what you've learned about your own rhythms and needs, and it's good food for thought for me. as I delve into my morning here. Looking forward to seeing the changes that are afoot for your SS (congratulations - it all strikes me as something to celebrate!)! 💐

I finally realized I had to take more active steps to create the kind of life I want‘

What you wrote. I get hung up with that kind of thinking because I’m never sure about origin of my wants. Do they come from delusion? BTW, I enjoy just staying in bed in the morning, reviewing mt complex dreams, then reading posts and offering my lame comments.
