Dark clouds gather……

Get busy living, or get busy dying.

There’s that familiar feeling again. Heaviness, smokey type aura, negative thinking. I’m not walking. I can always tell in my body that something is not right and I am not walking, getting fresh air. 18 years since a bipolar diagnosis and have been fortunate not to suffer much from the depression part of my disease. Until recently my thinking has changed, my brain has changed. I have been told that I will not emotionally regulate until I walk on a daily basis. So I stop and start, feel the depression and start walking again. I try.

This time I have a plan. Don’t overthink it. Just do it. Have a reminder buddy. Head out the door. Grap the headphones and an audiobook!

Over planning often leads to paralysis. So, what can we do today to overcome stagnation and move forward in a healthier way?
