Judging

 Hmm. Whoever is upsetting me the most is my best teacher.

I heard a jogger mention something called Covid insomnia. “Sleep disorders are one of the most common symptoms for patients who’ve had COVID-19,” says sleep medicine specialist Cinthya Pena Orbea, MD. “They report insomnia, fatigue, brain fog and sometimes we even see circadian rhythm disorders.”

In my classroom, October is Physical Health Awareness Month. I made a draft plan, but haven’t communicated it to anyone:

Make good food decisions: 

Track your food intake with MyNetDiary

Drink water and track in MyNetDiary

Sleep 8 hours per night

8:30 Meditation

8:45 Evening Thoughts (this blog)

9:00 Lights out

Working Out for 30 minutes or more everyday

Mondays: 20 minutes cardio, then Leg day- Boot Camp

Tuesdays: 20 minutes cardio, then chest/tris through Yoga

Wednesdays: 20 minutes cardio, then back/biceps in Weight Room. Evening workout at MB Wrestling room with Cuesta Wrestling team.

Thursdays: 20 minutes cardio, then sprints on track

Fridays: 20 minutes cardio, Grappling class

I guess the next step will be to put it on the Calendar. What would stop me from doing that? Probably catastrophizing and judging. Well, I did it. It wasn’t the magic bullet, but it was a good step.
