A MOMENT OF SERIOUSNESS.
About a year ago, I was diagnosed with sleep apnea.
I had gained a lot of weight over the prior 5 years. I was tired all the time. I never had any energy. I was unhappy - a lot.
Finally, I got off my butt and went to a doctor - then to a sleep clinic. Thanks to their help - and to the machine that now helps me get more than 17 minutes of sleep at a time - I'm sleeping eight hours a night, I've lost 25 pounds, I always have energy, and I'm really, really happy.
I bring this up not to suggest that you might have apnea too. I bring it up because too often - we look for happiness by pushing ourselves even harder, - even when what your body and soul really need...is a bit of a break. Not just for health, but for happiness.
Give yourself a little extra sleep this week. See if you don't feel a little better.
Sometimes all of us could use a little more "shutdown" time.
