Day 19 Sept 18 – Reflections…
One of the best things about jogging? Thinking thoughts...
For example:
Roar by Katy Perry is my reparented song. I was always stifled, muffled & shut down as I grew up… and there were some substantial consequences (that we will not go into right now).
Objectively, I now know She did her best & I find that to be very sad… there have been less-than-ideal consequences as a result of a mind & spirit unwilling to change brain & body She had a fixed mindset & a refusal to be anything other than a victim of life (and that is a topic for a therapist to unravel, I’m sure). To sum up:
If one is unwilling to change, then one is in for worse fates.
I am a Late Bloomer who eventually woke up and became someone closer to Me… and this reminds me of Bevy Smith’s Ted Talk – She says: “It get GREATER Later!” I am inclined to agree. (Another post for another time will be to acknowledge those folks who encouraged me to shine, whether they know it or not!)

And here’s how this whole Wellness Journey got started (which I haven’t posted yet, but I will tell the origin story in a non-linear fashion, because let’s face it – I’m a wee bit askew & kooky…
Mind said, Brain, « Some is better than none » and Brain said, « Yeah but more is even better! » (That’s how sometimes we do extra because Brain chooses it & Brain likes to be in control.) Sometimes I have to remind brain that « we don’t have to put a number to everything »
Brain pouts & because numbers yay… we love a good number sequence…
Week 1 was about just getting Brain onboard. Then on day 4 Brain said « more! » so we climbed 1 set of 72 stairs… then like Fibonacci, on week 2, we did 1 set again…. I love the Fibonacci numbers (I do love a good number patter or sequence) but that is definitely too much too fast, so…
1 week for 1, 2 for 2, 3 for 3, 4 for 4, etc.,… is the N-Sequence, as I've coined it:)
Mind is happy
Brain is happy
Body is happy
Spirit is happy

And my fav playlist - IVT 6: Power Pop Pump - tells me I’m substantially better, fitter & faster than at the start; this is the control variable, I suppose, the Constant…
Further, I never would have come up with this playlist on my own ever never… It is both an energetic & empowering mix:

    | And some of these songs hit waaay harder now with age & maturity, nay… Wisdom: P!nk - Raise Your Glass So raise your glass if you’re all wrong In all the right ways All my underdogs We will never be, anything but loud And witty gritty dirty little freaks Now, I remind my whole self: “You’re a beautiful weirdo. Be well. Be happy. Don’t be fancy, just get dancey😊” #TheArtofWellnessJourney #theartofwellness #theartofMe #diditforthedopamine #IWTplaylist #iamart #missnikki_everydaywellness #roar    |
