Hello out there in slowly opening up quarantinesphere. I hope you are doing well and you and yours are okay. And if not that you have all the help you need.

As you can imagine, I am not my full self currently. I could start chemotherapy on Monday, and while I don’t have too many side-effects, I am really really exhausted.

For me, it’s a question of getting the balance right between doing a little to no give the depression and anxiety more food than necessary and to rest. I have started to feel a bit useless, which doesn’t help.

So my strategy is as usual. Breathe. Sit connect with the ground and breathe. And complain a little here and here 😉 . And breathe. Concentrating on my breathing made me realise that I had started to hold my breath often, and I am no doing the proper old belly breathing. So that is where I begin. So let’s all come together and breathe deeply 🙂

 

breathe in and out now

soon you will cope much better

smell the peonies

 

Happy Thursday all of you despite everything.
