Day 4: Sauna

Happy weekend!! I have to say that I thought the weekend would be really challenging to get in my 30 minutes of self care. Today, I had to get up earlier than I would on a typical Saturday (although still not as early as a normal workday). But, it felt SO HARD - so silly. 

In any case, I set my alarm, and came into work and did my 30 minutes before my first client. I had to do my video afterwards because I pushed my time to close to my next appointment, but that's okay! I did it!

I found myself craving the sauna again. I didn't sweat nearly as much as I had the other day, but I still was pretty darn gross (which feels so good)!

Two observations now that I'm 4 days in to this experiment: I seem to wake up grumpy a lot! Other's probably know this more than I tend to recognize it (lol). But the 30 minutes in the morning really has started a good trend of reflecting on how I FEEL. Clearly, how I feel impact my mood, and therefore impacts the rest of my day. So, recognizing my grumpiness, I was able to dig deeper on that, decided it didn't serve me, and let it go. 

In doing so, (these are my observations about my observations :), I also remembered that, I, 1: Should set an intention each and every day for my day. What is my purpose that day? What do I want to accomplish and why? Aimlessness doesn't get you anywhere at all. Energy flows where Focus goes. Also, 2: That the last 5 minutes before you fall asleep are critical in how your next day unfolds. Fall asleep anxious and stressed, you'll wake up that way. You deeply manifest in your sleep. So, I need to make an effort to remember that they last 5 minutes count! I want to create something amazing in that 5 minutes and let my dreams bring it to life!

My other observation: For the first time in starting this, I feel excited for tomorrow's session! Since I won't be coming into work, I will need to be creative in what I want to do at home to get in my 30 minutes. 

Have a great day!
