Today was a busy day! We did our first somatics class and I filmed the first video for the “Start Here” classroom (it’s up there now for you to view!). I also had patients in the morning to see, and I had a session with my personal trainer. It was a lot. Too much. It just goes to show that I’m still a work in progress too! Slowing down is the work. If you’re keen on finding balance, if you have health goals, if you want a better relationship with your body, slowing down is always the first step. It just so happens to be the hardest thing to do. We all have busy lives. Most of us are probably overcommitted. Work demands. Family demands. It adds up, and it often doesn’t leave a lot of space for us to just…be. Up here in Canada, we have a long weekend coming up. My husband and I are going camping and I plan to do a lot of slowing down. Also a hike and some fun. But plenty of time to relax, reset and tune it. Camping just so happens to be my favorite way of slowing down. I’d love to hear how you slow down. Let me know in the comments!

Today was a rough day for me. I didn't sleep well last night at all (I hurt my foot and couldn't get comfy - I'm fine now). I had to be up at 4:30 this morning for work, and of course it was a super busy shift in the ER. By the end of the shift I was exhausted. And ALL I could think about was chocolate. I had some. Then I wanted more. I recognized that this craving was because I was tired. This is ALWAYS my pattern when I'm super tired. So I gave my body what it needed - a nap. Now I feel so much better and the craving is gone. I'm giving a talk to a bunch of doctors on Friday, and I was "supposed" to work on my slides for it this evening. A younger version of me would have powered through the fatigue and eaten all the chocolate I needed to get the slides done. The current version of me allowed myself the rest I needed. I'm curious to know what signals your body gives you when you're exhausted? Do you recognize when you're tired, or are you like me, where it took those familiar chocolate cravings before I checked in to see what my body needed? Do you allow yourself rest when you're tired? Let's talk it out in the comments.
