When Rest Feels Like the Only Option
I'm not sure what's happening to me today... I feel exhausted to the point that even walking feels tiring. I felt like I was going to get sick, so I decided to just rest. But I couldn’t fall asleep right away, so I'm writing this post in hopes that it’ll make me feel sleepy 😂. I'm not sure how you guys feel after writing your Hive posts, but for me, it’s relaxing enough to make me sleepy afterward.

So instead of watching short videos before bed, I spent about 30 minutes writing this post.

Hmm, this Monday made me feel uneasy. First, it started raining heavily just as I stepped out of the house and walked to the bus stop. That has to be one of the most uncomfortable situations, especially on a Monday morning. Then it got worse when I realized I had left my phone at home 😱. What a way to start the week, right? Thankfully, I can access WhatsApp on my laptop, so it wasn’t a total disaster. Luckily, no one tried to call me haha.

The people I thought might call, I had already informed beforehand to just message me instead.

All these unlucky things that happened today are probably enough reason to treat myself, but I already had a cake roll yesterday—so I don’t want to overdo it. It’s hard to get back into a routine once I get too used to pampering myself with treats. So for lunch, I kept it simple: brown rice with braised tofu and pork belly. No dessert! Hehehe.

I really need to cut down on sugar since I had way too many sweets over the weekend.

***Despite the rough start to my Monday, I’m glad I was able to slow down and take a moment to rest. Writing this post turned out to be a calming way to reflect and unwind. Hopefully, tomorrow brings better energy and a smoother day ahead.***

At times I've had the same thing happen to me too, with a persistent discomfort to sleep, so what I do is to start writing.  Many times it has happened to me, and that has always been my valid option while catching up on sleep ☺️

I can totally relate with your experience. Some days are always like that. I hope you get a good rest and wake up energised for tomorrow. Also, it is such a great idea to choose writing as a means of unwinding instead of scrolling through social media short videos. 

Sending good vibes your way

you need a regular exercise, like swimming or jogging 2,4km twice a week. That should help your body metabolism stable

I did not make a post today- was busy working on my second ~~super secret~~ manga that I am probably not posting on Hive till [the contest](https://www.mangadraft.com/contests/global-comic-awards-2025.en) ends. 

Normally I schedule my post a day in advance. Now I just don't have time because I have to make that second manga till 29 of June. That still seems far away but my progress is slow so that deadline seems scary. So I could not rest even if I wanted to.

Some days my energy just disappears for no reason, and all I wanna do is lie down and write out my thoughts. Honestly, your meal sounds so comforting though brown rice, tofu, and pork belly?? YUM! Proud of you for skipping dessert after a cake roll day haha, balance! Hope you're feeling more rested today.

I feel a bit of that burnout too lately, fortunately I had a bunch of posts scheduled so I can take a break. But even once those are done I think I'll continue it. Gotta listen to the soul when it asks for some time to rest.

>**Getting caught in the rain and forgetting your phone on a Monday?**

That combo alone deserves a full reset and a hug from the universe. But I love how you still found a sense of balance with the way you handled it... no overindulging, just something warm and grounding like brown rice and braised tofu. Quiet wins like that matter. Rest well.... you’ve definitely earned it😊🥰. SUPPORTED ♥️
