Morning Sunshine

I woke up today feeling very refreshed and energetic. So much so, that I decided to write a blog post about it.

I didn't go to bed very early... I went to bed a little before 4AM. I have believed that 5 hours is enough time for the body to sleep, although I had not had evidence of that in a long time until now.

So I've been wondering what was the reason for my perky arousal, and I have listed the following possibilities:

1. I ran for 45 minutes straight yesterday. Slowly, but constantly.
2. I didn't eat right before going to sleep yesterday. I did eat a generous dinner at Lulu's at about 9:30PM, but I avoided the pre-bed snack I always tend to grab.
3. I lay to sleep in a meditative way. I straightened my body, I relaxed my mind, and tried to "flow out" the thoughts that had not yet expressed themselves during the day.

And then I just woke up this morning - not groggy, not sleepy, not tired. I feel well! I have a meeting at 11AM and I am not rushing to get there and stressing over whether I still have time for a 2-minute shower. I... it's wonderful :). I'm procrastinating my whole day with this blog post, of course, but this is... I hope it will later help remind me about good habits and their happy consequences.

Now off to start my day! Morning sunshine! :D
