The Next Chapter




The Next Chapter

Moving into the next phase of my life this year, I am focused on restoring and repairing my chakras and immune system. I went to the doctor yesterday and discovered that the flu I thought I had was a virus that had settled in my respiratory tract. The doctor said that the fatigue and subsequent shortness of breath that I had recently experienced over the weekend was likely from the virus and that it seems that it is moving its way out of my system. So that is great news. Yay! I could look at my recovery from this recent bout of illness as a setback, but I'm going to take it as Mercury Retrogrades shadow reinforcing that fact that I need to pace myself and take greater care of my health. Today's yoga practices are about repairing my throat chakra because my vocal cords need the TLC after coughing so much along with some gentle vocal exercises and herbal teas. I took my vitamins like a good girl. LOL both literally and figuratively. Now all that's left is to take a break, take a breath and move forward.

Today I couldn't fit a full-length yoga practice into my day, but sometimes you have to get it in where you can fit it in. Still I haven't missed a day of yoga yet and I don't plan to start even if I am getting over an upper respiratory tract viral infection. "I went to the doctor and guess what he told me" to quote Sinead O'Connor in the late Prince's "Nothing Compares 2 U". Well his advice certainly wasn't about having fun. He told me to rest and that is exactly what I'm going to do. Sip some tea. Study. Read a book. "Watch a thing," as Jay says. I'm going to chill out. So goodnight people. 👍
