Re-charge
You ever wake up after 2 days of sleeping and still feel fatigued and exhausted? Again that was me today, my body was just not happy with my current level of nutritional contents. So after eating breakfast I passed out after a nap. Yea I was barely up 5 hours and my body was like no Hope, not today. I napped for over an hour and when I woke up I just wanted to go back to sleep. So I went upstairs and laid down and while doing this I was like no. Why am I this tired. What is going on inside me that I can barely do anything without needing a nap. That is when I decided to just test things.
When you have spent the better half of two days sleeping and allowing yourself the rest then I say it’s time to pick shit up and start moving. I was tired of being that exhausted and I needed to change it. So I got up and did a workout and after began being proactive. I am going to be working on a project tomorrow and am getting the tools and materials I will need to make it. I will post a picture of the completed project. But as I laid there being like okay I can just sleep, why not. I decided that I don’t want to live my life that way anymore. I don’t want my body to betray me, I don’t want to feel uncomfortable in my skin. I don’t like this anymore, it’s not even emotional. As i worked through the workout with an anger stricken attitude I found myself at the end spent. Sweat pouring off of me I was proud that I worked through the anger. And then later on I jumped on a zoom to do my friends workout. So I did 2 workouts today. My body craves movement, and lately my diet won’t allow the type of movement I am use to. I get angry easily because I am taxing my liver with unnecessary garbage and it shows. After my workouts I allowed myself to sit in a hot bath for an hour. Just resetting and recharging. My body needed this cleansing so badly. It was like it melted away a lot of sludge that clung to me like a balloon when you rub it on your hair. That sludge was causing so much exhaustion.
As I spent my day trying to get out of the pit of exhaustion I started to read a book about cleanses. How they are so detrimental to our health. The book is in depth and detailed and speaks on many levels I am familiar with. It gave me hope for changing the things in my body that seem to hold me back oh so often. I am hoping that doing this cleanse, which doesn’t involve starvation or fasting get that one, I will be able to recharge my inner fire and gain back my energy stores I have lost. Ever since 2 years ago my body hasn’t felt good which in turn makes me not feel good. I have gone to the doctors so many times with no answers. It made me feel like there was something wrong with me, that I was dysfunctional but this book talks about this. It speaks about how autoimmune and viruses and bacteria and all these unseen things in the body are attributed to the foods we eat. My body needs a recharge, a hard reset and that is what I plan on doing. This book is a monster and I need to get through it by next week so I can start my cleanse right away. So I am giving myself 1 week to finish reading this book and start getting back in control of my body. Have you ever just been so sick and tired of being sick and tired? Well that’s me.
How do you recharge? Do you do it in the morning? Or maybe in the evening? What are some activities that allow your body to reset? Everyone is different. What is right for me won’t be for you. Figuring out what works for you is important. Get to know what activities work for you and which ones leave you feeling drained beyond anything. Recharging could be going for a walk in nature or just allowing yourself some space to do yoga. When you need to recharge find the time to do that. Because you won’t be able to take care of yourself or anyone else without it. Happy recharging.
My day started at a 2 because of the exhaustion but ended at a 6 1/2 from kicking my own ass. Sometimes you just have to do it. I know it’s hard but get your ass up and move.
