What will you do to challenge yourself today (can be about your mindfulness practice or anything else going on in your life)?
Writing out the things I want to talk about to my providers this week.
@DanaMH
Writing down important topics like that is so helpful! This way we don
@EmunahHere
Or I can bring it to the next appt and say you haven't touched on 1 answer or solution to help me and what are you doing about it since I am ready to go the press and board of directors and get a lawyer that wants to make some money.
@EmunahHere
HI Emunah thank you for this
What will you do to challenge yourself today (can be about your mindfulness practice or anything else going on in your life)?
Today I will work on not letting others words get to me. I will slow myself before I respond to anything. Today my brain will have training guards on it
@RumpleSteeleSkin
Awesome, Rumple <3 Giving ourselves space before we respond to someone, especially if they
Hiya :) I am planning to focus on staying focused and making sure that I set reasonable and achievable goals for today.
@peppermintlove
<3 Yes, setting maintainable goals is very important! That way you don
@EmunahHere Hi Emunah! :) How are you? How was your weekend? <3
What will you do to challenge yourself today (can be about your mindfulness practice or anything else going on in your life)?
Today. I will challenge myself to remain focused while completing work and school work, and have enough time to relax and unwind before the week begins tomorrow! I have a lot to do, and I hope to do a better job of managing and completing everything this coming week than I did this past week. :)
@SaimaK
Hey, Saima <3 you
@EmunahHere Thank you so much! <3 :) I am glad to hear that! My weekend was good as well, thank you! <3 :)
What will you do to challenge yourself today:
What I did was send a message to a FirstCall MD and call the pharmacy about my meds to see if I am really being cared for in the best matter from current team or if I should be reducing the meds that I am currently taking.
@DanaMH
It sounds like you're being your own advocate, which is awesome! I hope that they were able to help you with your questions.
@EmunahHere
Nope and just asked how much I am paying and how to get rid of them.
@EmunahHere I am not being sarcastic, but part of what I had to challenge myself to do was give up trying to achieve goals and just be. And appreciate life and relax. If I am always pushing myself to achieve then I miss part of the joy in life, just being!
@soulsings
This is how I challenged myself today, too! Tried to focus on non-striving and just being present where I am without thinking of the stuff that I want to do. <3
@EmunahHere
Sunday was a no internet day with a phone that didn't ring until 3pm -- just the rain, a few small mindless chores to accomplish, and unwinding.
My only snafu in the day was a 2nd degree burn to the top of my hand while making lunch and cooking ahead -- but eh, it'll heal.
@diplomaticconfucious ouch hope your hand is starting to feel better.
@soulsings
Thanks Soulsings.
I'm not too interested in peeking under the bandage yet -- just a tiny bit of dread has set in though this is not my first 2nd degree burn though, so I had some skill set for responding to it - but I'm just going to try to move on, it is what is, right?.
But it isn't screaming anymore - just a little reminder when I tap it at work. So -- yay!
@diplomaticconfucious pay attention to it. Sometimes our body has a message of wisdom to give us but we have to be willing to hear it.
@soulsings
Thanks -- coloring of previous experiences on a present situation, I think.
It's not as bad as previous burns when I looked at it last night -- it is not looking irritated other than the burn, which is GOOD. ::yay::
I wasn't comfortable leaving it exposed, so another bandage on it and next change I'll add some triple antiB for added measure. Going to have a nice scar -- to go with my many others. Oh well, it is what it is.
@diplomaticconfucious wishing you a fast recovery.
