Have you ever been burning a candle at both ends for so long, taking care of all the adulting, the business, the family, the dog, etc. when seemingly, out of the blue, life stops you dead in your tracks?
You know, like ending up sicker than a dog in bed barely conscious?
I have too and it was highly frustrating until my coach, Katie, reminded me of something.
You see, I didn’t end up sick, I actually managed to give myself a concussion by running into a door when my foot abruptly stopped it from opening up fully. Ouch!
Unfortunately, the way I hit my head totally jarred my neck in the same manner a previous injury had occurred so it didn’t take much force to create a bigger problem than one might expect.
I had a headache immediately and my neck was tense and angry. It didn’t take long for me to realize my speech had been affected much like my last concussion and my short term memory was fuzzy.
I didn’t have time for this in the midst of all I was currently juggling.
Yet Katie reminded me life has a way of slowing us down when we won’t do it for ourselves.
When we’re out of balance, something will eventually create space for us to address it.
My lesson out of this was making sure I am taking care of me and really listening to what my body is needing instead of always pushing through.
I’m curious, have you ever had this happen? Please share in the comments below what lesson you learned.
