Nervous Energy - Have you ever had those days where nothing seems to fit and the more you think the more anxious you get? I have recently. Where I feel mentally drained, but still wide awake. My brain is going in directions that I didn't even know were possible. Everything I do to release my anxiety only winds me up all the more. It's an absolutely exhausting cycle.
Yet thankfully I'm learning that there are a few things that quiet my mind on these days, and it ain't yoga. Nah, I prefer more active forms of brain detox... i.e. running until my legs beg me to stop, dancing to salsa music, and finally my own art therapy, self-portraits. *sigh now I can finally sleep.
