ON THE GRAM

They call it addiction for a reason. 

And turns out Netflix (or similar) bingeable series (anything with repeating episodes) are absolutely a gateway drug for me. 

To lots of unhealthy behaviours and decisions. 

Eating more than I need of the kind of food that isn’t best for my body. Staying up later than my body needs or even wants to. Avoiding hard conversations in my head (processing hard stuff). And meaning I’m less present in person where I want to be. 

I don’t really want to do this, in some ways: it sort of sucks cos bingeable shows are a comfort things. And they’re literally CRAFTED on purpose to make me keep pressing next, keep pressing next, forever.  Netflix doesn’t care if I’m healthy; they only care if they’re making money, and the more screen time I log the happier their not-so-little accounts are. 

But Netflix doesn’t have to live my life: I do. 

So I pick me. 

I feel all motivated and inspired today but I am 200% confident this will fade at some point soon. Possibly in about an hour when I’d usually open up the screen.

So that’s why I’m sharing it. Because good and hard things shared like this means people know, and will ask, and so I don’t get to hide behind telling only myself. 

Because I know myself: and I guarantee that although today was super productive and I went swimming and made good choices, I’m going to need to say no over and over and over in order to keep making those good choices. 

Here’s to what this will do for me a year from now! Because I’ve done it already with takeaway (that was last year), and now that’s just the way I live life. 

Happy Monday to you. And to me!

BLOOPERS! Please enjoy this small compilation (trust me there’s loads more) of times when I, apparently, am not able to speak. 

Or think. 

Or remember my own name. 

Anyone else? 😆😆

Being blue doesn’t have to be a low thing

Sometimes all the blues lift me right up. 

Blues of mountains and hills and water and sky. 

Happy Saturday

If you’re tempted to beat yourself up for not doing the thing you meant to (like choosing sleep instead of a swim, like I did this morning), here’s three wise words to help you put it in perspective: 

“Both are good.”

Going for a swim is good. Sleeping is good. 

I don’t have to beat myself up for choosing one good.
