Learning to relax.

I have mastered the art of mentally freaking out. Now I have to undo it. Stuff will always be thrown at you, it's just up to you how you deal with it.

I had an incredible morning. I had some spanikopitas for breakfast, did 45 minutes of kick boxing, and just felt a sense of joy overall. I know I'll sleep well tonight. Then I get a bombshell call about my property tax. I'm moving to Canada. No, it was actually okay because I could handle it, but it did put a dent in my day. It doesn't have to! I think living in the now and not worrying about stuff is critical. So I did a breathing exercise (which I SHOULD do for my cravings, ahem) and felt a ton better. You know what could save me a lot of money, not drinking and smoking.

I found gluten-free pasta that actually tastes good, and had some cucumber slices with yoghurt sauce.

I have a lip gloss addiction, is there a 12-step program for that? I got Sephora's kit of different brands, a V-Day present to myself.

The highlight of my day was kickboxing. There is a show on cable that has different workouts. I put on a sports BRA, not a tank, and my torso is actually not bad. but it helped that I was alone nonetheless. I felt that euphoria during and after that I may have to do cardio every day. I imagined kicking and punching my ex-company's owners, which is completely harmless. I know I've been trying to do the yoga thing for serenity, but you know what, I think violent cardio might be what I need. HEY-YA!!!
