Furget About It

I cannot even believe that I am FINALLY in front of my laptop again.  Tuesday night, Adam and I had a lovely night in and made a version of this vegan buddha bowl.  It was such a delicious and healthy meal, we were both feeling great!  I was finishing off my small glass of red wine post meal, when my throat all of a sudden felt swollen and painful.  That was it, I was done for.  Since then, I’ve basically been fighting this horrible beast of a flu-like sickness.  I tried my hardest to fight it, but ended up with a TWO DAY migraine, which I wouldn’t wish on anyone.  Essentially, I have been asleep, unable to handle light or noise or being awake.  I didn’t even charge my phone for almost 3 days, because I wasn’t even on it.  When I’m not eating AND not using my phone, you know I’m really ill!

Luckily, in my sleepy fog last night, I dreamt that I did some yoga to ease my headache.  Despite waking up with the same migraine pain, I took some ibuprofen, and did this yoga video and then this one.  Then, I had some water, put my Saje Soothing Herbal Eye Shade, and had a nap.  I woke up, and for the first time in two days, felt like a human again.  It’s glorious I tell ya, just glorious!  Thankful that my dreams relayed a practical and effective healing method to me, because I don’t know if I could have handled another day in bed.

Anyway, this is obviously not how I wanted to end the year, but damnit 2016 just had to have the last word.  I’m still hoping to do a recap post for tomorrow!  Hope you guys have all had a better week than I have, wishing you lots of love and light as you bring in the new year xo
