#recovery day

[qrfit]

Day 3 of 5 day workout week:

Woke up today with no pain in my quad! 🙌🏽 None. Didn’t even need an anti-inflammatory or my massage gun! Still feeling more tired than usual, so I scaled everything back a bit. Did just a short walk with Nico, just to get my blood going! The fresh air and sun really helped my energy levels.

I got in my home gym and decided to give the elliptical a break for a few days. Switched to the cardio bike and really kept to steady state intensity for 20 minutes with light to moderate resistance. Then, I completed a quick, mixed impact HIIT with some weights added in at the end. Looking back, it will be days like these that I most proud of on my journey! Today was challenging, but we somehow got over the hump. How fitting for hump day! Hope your day was productive and rewarding as well!! 🫶🏽

Cooling Down | Recovery Day

there is always tomorrow

"If rest becomes a form of recovery from work, as is the case today, it loses its specific ontological value. It no longer represents an independent, higher form of existence and degenerates into a derivative of work. Today's compulsion of production perpetuates work and thus eliminates that sacred silence. Life becomes entirely profane, desecrated."

—Han Byung-Chul, The Disappearance of Rituals (trans. Daniel Steuer)

So I’ve been off tumblr for a few days because, even though I heavily filtered tags, I didn’t want to be spoiled for Good Omens 2. I finally had the chance to finish it and HOLY SHIT. No spoilers, but DAMN was it good! I can’t wait to finish watching it with my parents, as they’ve only seen the first two episodes of this season.

As for life… on Thursday I went down the shore with my sister and nephews, it was my older nephew’s birthday. Somehow he is now 14 years old. When did that happen?! With the excessive heat I was worried that I might get sick because of all the meds I’m on, but they made sure we went inside once in a while to cool off and that we stayed hydrated. I really appreciated that. we had such a great day. We played carnival games, played games in the arcade (I won an adorable reversible octopus keychain from a claw machine!), and rode rides. The photo below is from the gondola ride. We did bumper cars, go-karts, dizzy rides that I don’t remember the names of. We also did the fun house. Holy shit. The exit was through a large spinning barrel. With my inner ear history it really messed with me. I ended up on my ass and did a somersault. They had to shut it off so I could get up. 😂😅 The worst part? My sister caught it all on tape. 😣 Oh well, it was fun anyway.

Since then I’ve basically been resting. The heat and all the walking took a LOT out of me. I did absolutely nothing on Friday. Yesterday I managed to get to Walmart to get some groceries, and today I mowed the lawn. But that’s about all I’ve been able to do. I think I’m going to try to rest some more tomorrow.

“It could’ve been worse.” It could’ve been BETTER. It could’e been EASIER. It could’ve been lovely. It could’ve been beautiful, it could’ve been fun. It could have been simple, it could’ve made you HAPPY. 

You can drown in two feet of water just as simply as you can in an ocean. Stop downplaying what happened and neglecting your feelings. Kill that idea with fire. Or at least acknowledge that what happened was bad without immediately trying to justify or dismiss it.

Today we will journal, clean, and spend time cuddling with the babies.

if you're a recovering addict, i want you to know you're doing good.

you didn't use today? you're doing good. you used recently and you're still recovering? you're doing good. you sought support today? you're doing good. you practiced harm reduction? you're doing good. you want to relapse and haven't? you're doing good. you're getting involved, even if others are doing more? you're doing good. you're resting today? you're doing good. you're alive? you're doing good.

this shit takes time. you have spent a considerable amount of time doing harmful things to yourself, or others. you're not going to change overnight. all you can reasonably do is get through the day, adding as much good to your life/the lives of others as you can. it doesn't matter what happened yesterday, or what's going to happen tomorrow.

all you have is this moment, and if you're on the path of recovery... you're doing good. this is your story. not someone else's. not some idealized version of yourself. it's yours, just as you exist, right now. that's all you have, and all you need.

keep going. you got this. i'm glad you're here (and so is everyone else who interacted with this post).

You’ve done nothing wrong by eating. The guilt and discomfort will pass so please be kind to yourself.
