Today is day 5. IT CAN BE DONE! Here's a few things I've learned in 5 days:
1. I lay down if I can. One hour of sleep really energizes me.
2. Stretch, breathe and, if need be, drink a glass of ice cold water.
3. Pat myself on the back. Geez, this isn't easy and I've gone 5 days without the cigarette calling the shots.
4. Eat when hungry then make a plan to walk it off.
5 Listen to inspiring music.
Thank you Indingrl. I think of it as a journey back to who we really are. Congrats to you as well
It all sounds really good, and congrats on the first 5 days of the many you have the potential to count as DOF (Days of Freedom). Keep up the positive attitude, always remember you are the one "calling the shots" from now on!
Other things which helped me along the way: meditation, yoga classes, new hobbies, and definitely the right self talk, but you seem to have that already working for you!
Yes, yoga as well! I have to remember you are a fellow yogi. My instructor reminded the class today that we are the reflections in our experiences. We can change our reflections by changing the way we see and experience things. Sometimes I think she can see into my life
Ah yes, a "journey back to who we really are." You've got THAT right! And you've got right thinking.
GREAT PLAN! You've got this....now you just continue for 5 more and 5 more and 5 more.......
Stay Strong
Good for you! I love how you're analyzing and learning as you continue onward. The journey needs just that! We can study addiction but in the end, we must analyze as we're feeling it. Understanding is indeed a powerful tool for success. I commend you for seeking it!
Stay focused and you will win!
ONWARD TO FREEDOM!!!
