Tokyo, Japan is 17 hours ahead of San Francisco, California. So I left on Saturday but came back Friday night – weird, isn’t it? Reminds us that yes, this earth is turning:) So according to a formula referred to in the cited article, it takes 17 days to fully recover from this travel? Really? Just found this site that may be helpful for your next travel if you are crossing over 3 time zones: Click Here. I was naive to think that I am over it in mere 3 days as it turns out experts advise that we allow one day of recovery for every one-hour time zone shift. I am confident, though, with restorative yoga, you will recover much faster as I am the living proof:)

So I spoke too early. I’m not over it yet… I have been up since 2am unable to sleep and I know why. I feel like I am conducting some experiment for science, lol. I did NONE of the following last night nor the entire day – and I am paying for it:-(
_ yoga … no yoga? no wonder.
– meditation … no? sadly… no. should have made the time…
That’s it. Mystery solved.
Instead I did the following No’No’s:
_ At 10pm, watched a disturbing Japanese TV drama about a woman so unappreciated by her husband and sons, she leaves – she becomes a runaway, not a teenage runaway but a wife/mother escapee/runaway. Based on a novel by a popular writer… kind of Desperate Housewives, Japanese version (I can’t believe this is a 8-part series…).
_ Thought about what I needed to do today. A long list was compiled in my head.
Luckily I am not teaching this morning. No worries, I know what I need to do. Some mindless mistakes committed can be fixed. Practice, practice, practice:)
Have a wakeful nice day !
