I breathed oxygen out of a mask and sat with an oxygen tank on my lap for a few hours. I even cried into it (I was freaked out, to say the least, and super embarrassed)! Oh, and then I got motion sick and threw up on the descent. I was a complete mess, and, somehow it was all ok.
Here I am now, wiser...
When I finally got home and slept the whole episode off, the next morning I woke up and said, "Hello, dear body, what was up with THAT?" It must have been a perfect storm of eating too decadently, getting on the sugar roller coaster, being sleep deprived from travel, then not eating enough or drinking enough water (I know, me?). You know, the holidays.
Now I know this is ironic, given that I coach women about taking exceptional care of their health and energy... But I suppose I needed a reminder that we are ALL always students of life. This is exactly why taking care of MYself and my energy is so important, first and foremost.
It's taken me a few days to recoup... but here I am, wiser, and starting to think in forward motion again. It's Resolution time, right? The WORST thing to do when you're feeling low about yourself is to get sucked into the resolution hype. There is no rush. I repeat: There is no. rush. I'll share more on my approach to resolutions very soon
*I've got something special planned for you that I shared in the video that will help us both get our energy back up for the new year... Stay tuned.*
In the meantime, drink to this brain, body and mouth wake up!
