I went to bed early last night. I was still so tired. Any other time I would have eaten something and forced myself to stay up a bit longer. I was tired though and what my body needed was rest, not food. I felt (as Donna would say) most triumphant in giving my body what it needed!
I got up this morning on big ol' day 5 and went to the gym. I'm typically not a morning exerciser so I think I'll have to get my body used to coming up with that level of energy early in the morning. I did the elliptical for a half hour and then switched to the treadmill to finish off an hour.

I'm so glad you listened to your body and took care of it with much needed rest.
This is what we do when we are living a healthy, balanced, happy, joyous and free life.
In the old days--when we were not using our cognitive brain or tuning into our Higher Self to come up with creative solutions to various scenarios--we ate when we were tired, scared, mad, lonely, bored--and even happy!
And it backfired and made us more tired, scared, mad, lonely, bored and...unhappy.
It's still amazing to me at times that through what we learn and practice in LHJ&F on TRLTWF I've come to a place where it does not even occur to me to eat over things anymore. I deal with life-- as it is showing up for me-- in other ways, thank you, God, and it works much better for me.
Speaking of rest...I'm ready for bed! :) Night, night.
