Energy Shift

Energy is a real thing.  If the energy is good I can stay in a space and forget that time has passed.  If the energy is bad all of my fight vs. flight alarms start blaring loudly and I can’t relax.

Pay attention to the energy around you.  You are not a tree, you are able to move.  If you’ve devoted time to something but the energy changes, decrease the time spent.  Simple math.

We tend to rationalize participation in situations because we don’t want to make someone feel bad or feel guilty for putting ourselves first - cut that out.  Speak up for yourself.  Decline invites if something is lacking.  If a person truly cares about you they will understand and if they don’t?  Well then govern yourself accordingly with that person.  “No.” is still a complete sentence.

Today the energy is good.  Today I stayed in this space and slept in because I had no concept of time (it’s very rare that I sleep in).  Today I can relax in my Pretty Little Thing loungewear all day.  Today I will spend time planning other ways I can manage my consumed energy and put myself first.  Birthday plans loading...

If you actually took the time to read and made it this far, thank you 💋 and tell me what will you do for yourself today?
