Sleeping in and feeling positive

I couldn't believe it when I got up this morning, turned on the light ad saw that it was 6:30am. Ok, I know that this isn't a real sleep in for a normal person, in fact many people would consider this as getting up early, but for me it is a sleep in. I cant remember the last time I slept past 5am and quite often it is much earlier then this (like 3:30am). I probably would have slept even later still if it wasn't for Tess coming and waking me up. She was probably wondering what was going on I am usually up hours before then. I would really love too be able to start sleeping later everyday so fingers crossed that this is just the first of many 'sleep ins'.

I am feeling really fantastic and positive today. My boss text me last night to tell me our training that was supposed to be on today was cancelled which means that I get the day off which I am really happy about! It means that I can have a relaxing morning and then I will be able to spend the afternoon with Amy as my mum is working and Amy is on school holidays. I am feeling full of energy so I will probably rug up (As it is icy out again today) and take Tess for a nice walk or perhaps even a short run, I will see how I am feeling when the time comes.

I did yoga last night for the first time and I loved it! I have paid for 4 more weeks in advance and really hope that I can get to all of those sessions. I am so glad I decided to give it a go as I really felt fantastic while I was doing the yoga and even now, afterwards. I think that I will be able to build up some more strength throughout all of my body and I also think the mindfullness side of yoga will really help me too. I can now see why some eating disorder ttreatment cenntres have yoga programs for their patients to participate in. After doing a proper yoga session I really can see how yoga can help to heal both the body and mind.

When I got home from yoga, I saw that my mum had left a little gift for me. It was a beautiful fridge magnet that her and my sister had boughtt me that day when they went and visited Bicheno, a nearby town to where we live.

I hope that everyone has a fantastic day today <3 Does anyone have anything interesting planned?

      I have had terrible insomnia in the recent past, but for some reason at the moment, things are going well on the sleep front! I do struggle to get to sleep, but after that it's ok! I hope it carries on! Have you always struggled with waking up early? Xx

      Yes I have. I have always seemed to be able to get to sleep ok, however for years now I have woken really early. Because I always eat breakfat so early, I think my body is used tto being fed at that time and I therefore wake up witth hunger pains most mornings. I could probably stop this if I really wanted to by sarting to eat later each day however I actually like being up early each morning. It gives me lots of time to blog, reply to emails, walk Tess and get ready before I go to work each day. It would be nivce to be able to sleep in on the weekends though. Not really late as then I would feel as though I had wasted the day, just to 8am or something like that. :) xx

      Do you get tired though, waking up so early every morning? What time do you go to sleep at night? It must be a nice feeling knowing that you have been up without wasting the day! Xx

      Yeah I do get really tired sometimes Annie. Although I am usually so exhausted that I fall asleep early each night whilst Iam watching tv. Or I go to bed pretty early when I am feeling exhausted, like 9pm sometimes. xx :)

      Aw bless you! Maybe that's why you wake up so early if you go to bed earlier? But I understand falling asleep when you feel so exhausted. It must be just the way your body clock is at the moment? Xx
