HAPPY SUNDAY!

 

Apricity is my new favourite word. “The warmth of the winter sun”. That’s what this past weekend has felt like. And I can seriously tell you, the sun gives me SO much energy. The winter warmth. Bringing us out of that winter slump.

I truly believe the moment the sun comes out, my mood will completely shift. So much energy, so much joy. I am just happy.

After the long week I had, the weekend weather was what I needed to rejuvenate. And now going into the last two weeks before reading week, I feel ready to take on the busy schedule.

 

At the same time that I have been gaining some energy back, I have also been falling into some overthinking again. I kinda believe that overthinking is a part of my biology, but lately there has been inflammation to a large degree. It’s the current little things that I find myself getting anxious over. Little things that I let consume my mind more. Things that feel more weight, that I let spend more time than usual sitting in my brain. And I mean, thoughts are uncontrollable, and they come and go how they please, but what is in our control is how we interact with them.

Thoughts are very unpredictable, they just come out of nowhere. But, even though they may catch us off guard, we can still manage their impact and how we move forward with it.

Lately there has been some trade-offs. The good days and the bad too. But that’s okay. It’s a big part of life. And it just continues our learning journey in life.

Anxiety, stress and worry, oh my! If you gave me a speech to write, I could go on the biggest tangent of my life with these feelings and emotions.

I just have to embrace it though. I can’t change, but I can manage. I can be conscientious about how I let these thoughts roam in my head. I can control my interactions. It’s important to focus on what you can control, over what is completely out of your control.

I hope you are all doing well

 

STAY KIND 🙂

with love
