I've been trying to take care of myself better too. I'm working on overcoming my isolation/depression.. Therapy and trying to overcome my emotional blocks through writing/painting etc. is helping surely and gradually but it takes time.
Ever since about a month ago I started focusing on eating well and moving a little bit each day (I'm still not active enough but I'm better than I was) and I really think it's helping me get through it day-by-day. I've noticed a huge rise in my ability to cope too since I've started eating a balanced healthy diet. I'm sure my body is benefiting from getting the nutrients it needs but it's also helpful in a symbolic way for me, I feel respected by myself. I'm still working on exercising more regularly. I get anxious exercising in public at the moment but I could do yoga and I keep putting it off for no constructive reason. Your talk of how exercise helped has motivated me to start ♥
Buying yourself a ticket to Barcelona sounds so positive ♥! I hope you have a nourishing time there, and are able to connect with yourself. I've never been to Barcelona but I love Gaudi and I've seen lots of pictures of his work there.. it seems really magical.
Thanks for your thoughts and comments. It is so great you are working to take better care of yourself too. Sometimes it is just so difficult to do. I am proud of you for taking the initiative to eat better and nourish yourself. I am truly honored to hear this post has helped to motivate you to start exercising more. I struggle the most with motivation. My intention is always there and yet I seem to find some excuse why not to do it. I *know* I feel better after exercising but I still manage to not follow through. I think it is a form of self-punishment or self-neglect because I am not doing right for myself.
I am so excited about Barcelona. I appreciate your well wishes for my time there. I will definitely post pictures when I return. I can't wait to see works from Gaudi. Love to you, too! Take care!
