Oh nice one on seeing the weight drop--always so encouraging!
That's great that you are getting a few good sessions in per day. i should really do more of that. Like even just a short evening session.
Thanks! The shorter sessions are really working. Though my arm is very achy, it is healing and I am getting way more mobility back. I am very relieved!
Several short relaxation points divided over the day is definitely more helpful for your muscles than one long one at night but anything helps. Yay for safe tires!
Thanks Llama, since you said this, I really kept at it, and it's working!! We got the oil changed and other stuff done to the car today and now have a nicely running car again.
Well done on losing the 3 pounds - fingers crossed it stays off! Great that you are getting the car sorted and are enjoying the meditation.
The weight went up a little again, but I'll keep at it and it'll come back down soon. Thanks for reminding me to meditate. I've been doing so many things, I forgot I was going to do more of that!
Getting your car safer & getting school work done at the same time is a good idea, M. Yay for 3 lbs lost! Having regular mediation moments during the day sounds nice xo
Thanks Cate, I am stopping and just appreciating life more consciously the last few days, and I will do a little meditation before bed now that you all reminded me!
We've been taking longer walks and it's been warmer, so I am getting color back in my face, which is nice. Today we got lovely sunset pics and there were so many flocks of beautiful birds out. I am feeling good about our situation. Even if we don't get everything we're entitled to, I feel so lucky at how well we are bouncing back and that we'll get enough to start out on our own makes me really grateful for our lawyers. I decided not to stress about the money part too much if I can help it. It really won't bring the kind of happiness that just being a family brings or being free. I am starting to shift my focus to recognizing that pretty soon we'll be free and out of this situation and on to a new life. It feels much better to do this. I feel like I've done what I can and the rest is up to fate or whatever outside forces are at play.
We're really loving our positive psychology class, and I'm learning so much. I also started a book by a therapist who works with people healing from narcissistic abuse and the book is amazing. I started it today and feel so understood and about 30 pounds lighter. I'm tired from the long walk and good yoga, so will turn in now. I hope I can figure out how to write a little about some of the wonderful things we are learning in positive psych without typing pages and pages. I'll have to think about it more when I have a brain again!
