Never really suffered from a jet lag of this debilitating level until this time. My entire frontal lobe feels constricted and my shoulders tight and neck stiff as a hard block of stone… a severe pounding headache and acute body aches, Day 1. Luckily, I have yoga tools in my toolkit to deal with this. I am treating myself to restorative yoga sequence and self-care I have read zillions of times but never actually tried on myself since I did not suffer … before, I bypassed the suffering and misery – I would have just popped Advil – today, I have various therapy techniques to try out on myself. I am the guinea pig:) If it were not for this headache, I would been doing so much much more tackling everything on my TO-Do list that piled up during my 2 weeks absence; but because of this headache, I am laying low. I am unable to … work… or play. Even reading, fav pastime gives me nausea…sad.
I take this as a message. Practicing a real message of yoga – Just practicing Being instead of Doing today.
Surely, it’s a blessing in disguise.
