🍃 Season: 🌷 Spring 🔆 Weekday: Wednesday 🗓 Date: June 7, 2023 📅 Week: Jun 5 – Jun 11, 2023

Today is one of those days where I don’t think I have much to say, so I’m going to just start typing and see what comes up. I woke up literally five minutes ago, and so my brain is still coming online at the moment. I also should go for a run today, and my upcoming long run is for like 40 minutes which I feel a little intimidated by. I think I can do it, but damn that does sound long.

I don’t really remember having a dream last night, but I do remember the feeling of falling asleep. I had just meditated, so I think I was perhaps a bit more sensitive than usual, but I could sense all the comings and goings of these images in my mind. There were many but the one I remember was this giant room that looked a bit like the inside of the Sagrada Familia, only without the colored windows. Mainly, it looked like a cathedral where the pillars were trees, and they spread into this canopy up at the top, hundreds of feet in the air.

Part of me thinks I slept enough and part of me thinks I could sleep for another few hours. I almost certainly could sleep more, but I mostly think that’s mostly because my sleep two nights ago was so bad that I haven’t fully recovered.

My mind feels like a puddle of mud, like wet cement. My limbs feel like sandbags. This morning is one of those times it feels kinda difficult to connect with my best self, and that’s why energy is so important. I’m tempted to go lay in bed for another few minutes or something, but I also think some exercise might help as well. Hmm, I think I’m going to attempt to power through with my existing protocol and see if that gives me more energy. If not, I guess I’ll learn that dropping some things from my morning protocol might be worthwhile if it means extra sleep. Well on that note, see you tomorrow, space cowboy.
