Reflection break before going back to work



Thoughts.

Some days, you wake up and your To-Do list is so long that you don’t even know where to start and everything needs to be done today. You panic, you get angry, and then you ask for help. Because you know that you have reliable people that can take some of the load off your shoulders (thank you, J!). Then you focus on the big deadline - the first assessment for my Lvl 3 Counselling course. I had already asked for an extension for this Friday and I needed to finish it all today. You also make some phone calls and send some emails. Then you take a break, write, and then continue with your list.


Feelings.

Anxious, overwhelmed, happy, excited, curious. I have a strange cocktail of feelings. I notice and label them, but then I put them away until I can deal with them. I’m surprised that I can take a break and allow them to exist and I’m pleased with my ability to let go of them. None of them requires immediate attention.


Sensations.

I had lunch and drank water. My eyes are slightly strained. The lighting is strange… It’s sunny, but I still need my lamp. I will probably want a walk and lavender tea later. I will need to disconnect.
