I am still feeling panicky and yes, it is related to work. I am finding it really hard to do actually do my job. I am a daycare worker and I am really not enjoying it that much anymore. I have realized what has changed during my career path. I used to assist and now I am kind of expected to take charge. I am struggling with that. A lot of the children are high needs kids and so you never know what they will do. I am always on edge. I am trying to figure out how to take my current skills and turn them into another kind of job where I am not in charge. I am wondering if I should train part time for some kind of admin type job? but then again that isn't predictable either. I want a predictable job, at least one that isn't so chaotic.
I am trying to challenge the negative thoughts. I am also recognizing that I have co-workers who I need to rely on. I am not the supervisor but I tend to take on too much.
I suppose I am now at a cross roads, unsure which way to go.
Sunflower, Talaria is the company that puts out the podcasts. If you have itunes I think you can find it under the title. The speaker also uses progressive muscle relaxation methods. They are the best game in town, I think - they have helped me to find peace in some truly stressful situations!
I took tetracycline from 16 to 30 for acne, along with oxygen touch ups and coverup cream. It really never went away until I hit middle age, and the oil is now something I miss, since it is a vital lubricant for our bodies.
Now I have to buy creams, drink a lot and watch the humidity
I watched a short clip by Tara Brach showing how grounded she is. Preferring progressive relaxation, I'll keep her podcast in mind. I like her sense of humour.
Thank you so much for the kind words, I really appreciate them :) I also listen to Peggy Cappy's Relaxation series. She also does easy yoga which I love.
I am not used to advocating for myself but I figure better late than never :)
Take care everyone and enjoy the meditations. By the way, is Talaria a company or an artist? I would love to look it up.
