In honor or National Stress Awareness Day I slept in, did not go to the gym as originally planned, ate a not so healthy breakfast and did not stress myself out worrying about why I managed to break all my “rules” before 10am on Monday morning.
Ok the real reason why all those things happened were because I stayed a few extra hours at work last night so I got home [and eventually went to bed] later than usual, thanks to a three hour gym sesh my entire body is sore and I’m just flat out hungry [trust me, you do NOT want to encounter me when I’m starving].
Regardless of why I did what I did, I do feel a rest day is in order. I can only run on a few hours sleep for so long and my body can only handle so much before I need to take a day or two to recover. I’ve only just begun week 2 of my mission and it would be a shame to burn out so early in the game.
Next on today’s “stress free” agenda: put on the headphones, crank up the volume and dance around to some music while I get ready for work. Yay! for Natural Stress Awareness Day!
