My mind
does. After the exercise-filled day yesterday, I thought to myself: “I
definitely earned some dessert.” Then I checked in with my body and my body
wasn’t into it. Sugar before bed felt like a dumb idea because my body wanted
to get a good night’s sleep.
Lying in bed
with my body felt very rewarding last night. My body reminded me this morning
that it would like to be stretched out a bit more. I will make sure to do some
of that before/after my run this afternoon. Thank goodness it’s a bit shorter. I’m
also taking my body on a plane tomorrow, so stretching will help with all of
that sitting too.
I am
noticing that the upper part of my body likes to sit over the pelvic/sacrum area
of my body. Keeping good posture actually makes my body feel better rather than
being a pain in the ass. I have to pay continual attention to keeping my body
up and structured that way, but I can hear my body feel stronger and more
connected when I keep an upright posture.
My body and
I are enjoying a salad and kombucha for lunch. I will listen, later, when my mind
brings up dessert. Who knows? Maybe my body will be into it by then… I’ll just
have to keep listening.
