I just texted my mom yesterday and said I wish the world would take a breath and slow down! There is Christmas stuff in stores already and Christmas adverts on the radio and it just feels like a constantly rotating cycle like being on a wash cycle and I just want everything to slow down!
It’s a lot to take in, with no breaks in between! I went to a craft store this weekend and the Halloween and Christmas items were mixed together! Would be lovely to focus on one holiday at a time!
Sometimes I want to say "Stop the world, I want to get off!" the title of a play I saw many years ago. I've learned to pace myself with the news by logging off my laptop, taking neighborhood walks, gardening, reading, meditating, etc. Also to remember that, no matter how bad it looks, the future isn't actually written yet! I used to becoming overstimulated and overwhelmed, with subsequent meltdowns, but I rarely do this anymore.
That’s why I have felt SO tired coming back from our vacation with hot days, Sun and a Warm sea! I just couldn’t figure out why I felt so fatigued the first two weeks home in grey dark days and cold temperatures - but now I do! 😮Strength has been coming back slowly when I slowed my schedule down!! ❤
Days before a full moon …extreme , extreme swings… i no longer have a cycle … the only way I picked up on it was journaling years ago, I saw a huge difference in the moods and exhaustion
Full moons can be intense, especially when you're more attuned! It definitely helps to find ways to notice those cycles. Journaling is a big resource for me too.
@@ilianaparaskevopoulou3621 it is literally the only way I noticed what was going on. I just thought I was grouchy for a few days , then I would be fine. I started researching the full moon connection. It is WILD. Werewolf , periods, cycles, harvest, the word “ LUNATIC”= LUNAR….ceremonial, the fact that our bodies react to the tides & sky is amazing. I work in the service industry… I can tell immediately by peoples attitudes if there is a full moon … the aggressive energy is palpable . When I was 18 I was in a cab, hotter then hell, the cab driver told me abt the moon… I’ve never forgotten that talk.. I’m 44 now. Everything he told me has proven to be factual, I just never put the puzzle together until the last few years writing
the other day i said to a friend, i just want to press the pause button on the world, until i have recharged and am ready to go on with life.
Oh my, yes!! I've said the same thing. If only we could just press pause and catch up with everything we're feeling, noticing, taking in.

So important to take those breaks for tactile experiences! I appreciate the reminder that "the future isn't actually written yet". Love that!
thank you 🙏❤
You're very welcome! 💜

Oh yes, no wonder you’re tired. That’s such a big adjustment! Hope you can be gentle with yourself.
I'm happy and calm when fall and winter approach. When summer comes, I get depressed.
I'm not aloooone with thaaaat, that feels good to know, no one understands it
Summer can be really intense and overstimulating. Fall and winter are so much more soothing.
Definitely not alone! 💜
thank you for this video :)
You're so welcome, Michael!

I have been facing the same with full moon time but sometimes it happens only with new moon time. It is really exhausting..i will try journaling...
