when the weekend is so crazy you find urself longing 4 the respite of the workweek lmfaoooooo

#and I fucking HATE the workweek. literally so insane #and it’s only Friday #literally aged 2 years in the past three days #like I can’t wait to just be with my students who literally don’t know a goddamn thing about anything and don’t know me and can’t see my #feelings LOL #I need to spend three days in a dark room sitting against the wall fasting and meditating. but I suppose two hours in the lap pool will hav #to do

maybe this is a tip you already know but if not i think this might be worth a try! i used to struggle with falling asleep a lot (nowadays less thankfully) and one method that has helped me very often is kind of meditative i guess? idk if it has a name but i’ll just describe it

i basically start with my toes and work my way up to my head in small steps, (mentally) telling each body part that it’s getting heavy and tired. i try to keep a slow pace and to emphasise the sleepy adjectives and it helps me calm down and to keep my thoughts in order and not think about 1000 things at once. some days it works better than others but even if i’m still awake by the time i reach my head (which i usually don’t) i just repeat the whole thing again.

plus just laying down with your eyes closed helps your body rest too, even if you are not sleeping. that thought helps me not get too frustrated if i have a bad day/ night and can’t seem to fall asleep.

yeah i know this one well :) damn i forget what its called too. smth body. body centred meditation? or just body meditation? body awareness? idk i did it a lot for a bunch of stuff. idk. yknow what tho? i think it mightve been the amount of tea i drank. thats likely it.

but on the flip side my to do list is coming along nicely! i cleaned the whole apartment and did laundry and ironed clothes and changed bedsheets and towels! i passed the exam so thats cool. worked out. im gonna like, take a shower and do that drawing thing thats been in my head, then im gonna pack for the trip, make lunchies... then when thats all done i'll come back to the sleeping thing maybe but honestly its like noon maybe i should just go along w it for today and go to sleep at a normal time

#its easily my most productive 34 hours in the past 3 months #oh i gotta proofread a bunch of stuff too #ok u wanna know a special body meditation tip? recently bc ive been so into hypnosis and ocs who use it #i just go full whumpee and imagine my fav whumper doing it🥰🥰#ONE NIGHT IT WAS LIKE ACTUALLY WILD #so if u know me u know i get the sleepy voices and the super vivid hallucination adjacent stuff #and it was soooo real that night #w a friend's oc #hi friend if u read this lol #but yeah it was awesome and i was out like a light within 2 mins #listening to my fav blorbo man say comforting things to me :) ANYWAY so yea i usually dont have any issues w it or anything #it mustve been the tea i drank a lot of it. like 5-6 cups within the last two days. mightve shocked the body a little #asks

my esoteric auntie (different auntie) treats her glaucoma with amanitas and week long fasts btw

#she's a little bit insane #she meditates 2 hours a day and has been doing it for years #and talks openly about getting rid of her usueless guardian angel and getting herself a new one who is more dedicated to helping her #i love her so much #moje

im so wired rn it’s crazy. i’m laying in bed trying to fall asleep but my mind keeps defaulting back to my work and finishing trains of thought that i quit when i went to bed. like i’m TRYING to fall asleep but randomly i’ll spawn sentences in my head bc my brain’s still trying to craft my final presentation. and it’s so stressful bc ik i can bs it but it’s still a lot of work

anyways the reason i’m fully awake rn instead of continuing THAT is bc in the dark, in my peripheral vision, i made out a big black bug right next to my pillow. i immediately sprang out of bed and scrambled towards the light switch, only to find…. a binder clip.

#anyone know non-illegal drug ways to stop being so tightly wound #i can’t even take OTC melatonin lmao i have to be on the bus in 4 hours anyways #meditating has never worked for me bc i’m too much of a hater but maybe i’ll try it just this once #i keep telling my brain i have 6 days i can make this work but nothing amazing is gonna get done at 2 am today #but it has a mind of its own hahahahahaha #[trying to fall asleep] lee’s interpretation of virtue ethics directly rejects the theories laid out by….. wait i should go to bed #but what if i use this source to talk abt this and then that one to fill this gap etc

//Bumi's like, "What are you doing? It's barely light out?"

Bumi, please. I had to get up at 4:30am every day to meditate when I stayed at the monastery. Tenzin was going easy on you.

#morning meditation was 5am for an hour #then 6am I made breakfast for the nuns #7am is breakfast #8-10am was free time #10-11 make lunch #11am lunch time done by 12 #12-1 clean up the kitchen #usually a dhamma talk around 2 but sometimes I just ran errands #4-7 free time or more dhamma talks #8pm evening meditation #9pm retire to our cells

im still not over the sleep thing one sec i gotta rant about this shit

#i think the problem now is that historically my sleep habits have been Really Messed Up by what can loosely be called insomnia my whole life #its always kinda just been a given that if im in bed and i cant sleep there is absolutely nothing that can be done to help #and thats not for lack of trying i have tried every meditation and suggested solution possible. it does not happen.#if i cant fall asleep and try to force myself w/o distractions i will be awake staring at the ceiling for hours. usually till the morning #thats not an exaggeration it happened often before i gave up on it. so i figured out coping methods!#namely 1) making sure my body is taken care of as well as possible to make sure its not caused by pain or hunger or anxiety #and 2) not trying to force it and accepting itll happen when it happens. and then reading a book or watching a show on a dim screen #until i physically cant keep my eyes open and then i can fall asleep. if i try any earlier than that no dice. my brain wakes itself up again #these worked for years! but now thanks to adhd meds that actually make my brain quiet. uh. these same coping methods are. not working #im physically tired and start my usual routine and wait to pass out while reading but i just. dont. ever.#like. the physically tired feeling has never made a difference in my body cooperating with sleep. but now apparently it will????#and ive been ignoring it??? bc im used to it not working? i tried just. closing my eyes and trying to lay still yesterday and it WORKED #after like. 10 minutes or so. it was fucking crazy. i thought media and pop culture was lying about people doing that.#anyways. apparently i can fall asleep like a human and not some kind of weird chronically exhausted cryptid now.#(because of new adhd meds to be clear) but i havent been because i didnt even think to TRY it. since. yknow. cryptid status.#shits weird.

I think I'm slowly starting to understand that me being constantly exhausted is just because I'm finally safe and my body is no longer running on adrenaline and cortisol all the time. I've been fighting against the exhaustion for over a year but I haven't actually allowed myself to rest without feeling guilty.

#personal #I need to learn how to relax and do one thing at a time and to not put myself in so many stressful situations #I'm allowing myself to sleep in #to read more #to start my day with something enjoyable like a walk or a nice long breakfast instead of a stressful to do list #I'm setting boundaries around being available to work on my days off #I'm taking days off of work #I'm allowing myself to just sit and be and read and have a drink at a cafe somewhere #without it being something rushed #I just need to.. REST this year #I've done the self care bit like the meditation and the yoga and the walks but it's always been something #and I've only relaxed while feeling guilty and multi tasking #I just need to really and truly relax; in a way where it's not a to do list #my favorite restaurant is closed on mondays #but they're located at a big lawn with chairs and benches #and I went there after work to just read my book for 2 hours #in the shadow and the breeze on a hot day #and I felt sad depressed but it was actually really nice #making some dinner now (easy dinner) and watching a tv show

gotta say, an unfun part of grad school is all the people trying to run studies and most of them take fucking 2.5 hours and don't offer any compensation so of course no one wants to do it so then when it's a study run by someone you are at least somewhat acquainted with they contact you directly to ask you to be in their study and i don't know how to say "hey i am holding onto my sanity purely by dint of the few precious hours of free time i have left, i do not fucking want to take away from that free time to get strapped up with respiration monitors and do breathing exercises for 2.5 hours."

#i already fucking did this once because they cornered me in person #i worked fucking 8.5 hours on a wednesday and then went upstairs to do the study and it took literally another 2.5 hours #for zero compensation #and now i have another second year texting me for another breathing study that is predicted to take 2 - 2.5 hours #and this one has a compensation of “a personalized meditation track” whatever that means #i get that they need to complete their theses but please understand that i am actually busier than most other people in this program!!#most people aren't working 15 fucking hours a week on top of clinic and class!!#most GAs even are just 5 or 10 hours!!#leave me alone!!!!#j.txt #here is that grad school tag
