Whenever I have trouble falling asleep or waking up, I listen to Beach House. Somehow this works well in both situations. The same music that hypnotizes me to sleep also makes me jump out of bed, ready to get energized for the day. Some days are less jumpy and more of the groggy stumbling type, but still.
I've been doing yoga everyday for a month now, and I have to say it's made a huge difference! Besides the whole toning and stretching thing, I feel much more energetic, grounded, and happyyy. I don't like exercise that makes me feel exhausted and stiff, but with yoga it seems like the more I do the better I feel, and I always look forward to it.
Other current obsessions include cheese bagels, watching Wimbledon and then playing tennis in real life, drinking infinite amounts of water (it's never enough!), and shopping for California-appropriate summer clothes. I love this warm weather so much! I'm especially obsessed with fluorescent colored tops. Ahem. Color, color everywhere! I think I've finally gotten used to spelling 'color' without a 'u', but feelings of strangeness occasionally linger.
Here's to a bright tomorrow bursting with bagels of all varieties, along with bracing games of Wimbledon-inspired tennis. Toodle-oo! :-)
Murray! :)
ReplyDeleteIsn't yoga wonderful? I used to do yoga 2-3x per week and loved how it made me feel. I haven't been so good about practicing when I don't have a class - looks like I could use a little work on motivation :) I'll bet it helps some with sleep, too!
Yay for sunny tops! Back when I lived in CT, I feel like the colors of choice were black and grey, but at least in the Midwest people wear more color!
Enjoy your cheese bagel (and your week, I suppose ;) )!
