I overdid it today.
I exercised too much, had too many things to do, didn’t take one break all day, didn’t eat or drink enough, just got home from coaching a swim meet, and I feel awful.
My former self would have written a post at all costs.
Because, well, because that’s what I do.
But one of my current e-courses is called “Balance.”
And if there is one thing I’m learning from yoga, it’s that I need to listen to my body.
So that’s what I’m going to do tonight.
Listen to my body.
It is begging me for rest.
Some days you need to power through.
Other days, you need to power down.
Today is one of those days.
The shit I didn’t check off today’s list can wait.
I’ll see you all tomorrow.

I hate when that happens! I hope you feel better after a good night’s rest!

I agree that it is really important to listen to your body. It is important both for your physical well being as well as your emotional sanity. As moms, I think we often get caught up in our to do lists and forget to put taking care of ourselves on the list. Just like on an airplane, put the mask on yourself before assisting others because if you don’t take care of yourself, you can’t help anyone else!
