Dear T,
It's really cold so I wasn't sure if I wanted to go for a walk, but I made myself do it. Only initially planned to do a mile, but managed to do 2. My face is burning a bit from the wind, but I'm glad I did it. Tomorrow: Deep Release yoga class. I probably won't feel like going initially and will feel anxious about it, but I'll make myself go. I'm trying to follow through on the "I want to get better" thing from Friday. Yesterday's session helped reinforce that, even if most of the conversation was therapeutic-relationship based. I think you can help me get there.
Love,
LT
ETA: And this is a minor thing, but I wanted to have another beer last night, but opted to have a fancy (nonalcoholic) soda instead. I still had more beer than I should have yesterday, but I had one less than I wanted to. I think that's progress of some sort. Hm, maybe I should have some sort of log/journal where I keep track of what healthy/self-care things I've done each day. Rather than listing it in a more negative sense, list the positives? Even like "had salad for dinner" (never mind having a less healthy lunch). Hm...
