If I could describe how I have been feeling today in one word it would be: anxious! *sigh*
I hate this feeling. Especially when there isn't one reason that I can pinpoint. I think it happens when I have a lot of thoughts running through my mind and seemingly a lot of stuff to do. It really helps to write all my thoughts down. If you experience anxiety or stress, try writing out everything that is worrying you. Once it's all written down it can seem a lot easier to manage. I feel like once it's written down it doesn't look so scary and I can begin to tackle each thing one at a time. If you still feel stressed after writing it down, try to meditate and/or focus on your breathing. Your breath is everything!! It is so powerful. It might be hard at first but set a timer for just 2-3 minutes and focus on inhaling and exhaling. If your thoughts stray from your breath, try to bring it back. See if you feel any different after that.
Aside from that, this past week was really great! My muffin sales went great!! (By the way, I am taking more orders for this week! Get your orders in by Tuesday at 10am. Message me for details) I meditated and read a lot. I didn't do yoga like I planned on but for some reason I'm just not called to do an hour of yoga. I miss sweating in that Corepoweryoga room so much! I really like doing a quick little flow when I wake up though so I will continue to do that this week. I am doing my best to stay focused on the present moment and not worry too much about the future although that is hard for me!
What was I grateful for this week?
☆I am grateful for everyone that bought my muffins.
☆I am grateful for everyone that believes in me.
☆I am grateful for being able to go to the farmers market! It makes me so happy :')
What are my priorities for this upcoming week?
☆Setting the downtime on my phone to turn on at 10pm and not touching my phone after that!!
☆Meditate every day.
What I did well this past week?
☆HARDCORE LIVESTREAM! I am so proud of myself for 1. doing it and 2. doing a great job!
☆This week I got through a lot of mental barriers.
Honestly just writing all of this out has relieved a lot of my anxiety and worries for the upcoming week! Thanks for reading<3

Jess
Jess, I am so proud of you for being able to say how you feel. I haven't wanted to express how I feel, but I am lonely. This time we are living in is so difficult.
