Just breathe

Qn: When do you know you've overworked?

An: When you have a migraine.

Yes an accumulation of all the triggers this week finally crossed the threshold. I thought I was doing well so could afford to push the line a bit more. But nope. My body was screaming.. ouch. It all happened in vocal class the vision started to go etc.. sigh.. so embarassing.

I'm better now but I so need to decompress. Have been working too hard. Not taking care of myself again. Been letting myself go and not treating myself right. All the late nights, the anxiety over work and over life has just taken its toil. After the bad migraine last year, I went on a meditation exercise and really made the conscious effort to slow down. Its work beautifully until recently I totally forgot about that. Note to self = I am not a duracell bunny.

I need to relook and slow down. I am no good to anyone when I'm sick or weak. I need to take care of myself before I can take care of others.

I'm going to be kind to myself and love myself.
