I have been working on my hoop skills and watched the Hoopnotica dvd. The people on the dvd told me that hooping is something that takes practice and not to let a negative inner monologue get me down. I developed some bruises in the practice and it's apparently important not to hoop on bruises. I am listening to the suggestion on the dvd and not letting a negative inner monologue to get me down... I'm practicing with an imaginary hoop to develop strength, and I'm looking forward to when the bruises are gone.
This is my way of saying, I know some of what you are going through. I've been feeling brittle and burnt out. I've been doing more bingey eating (something I don't do usually at all). And I know that the way forward is taking care of myself, taking baby steps, getting up again when I fall, and being gentle with myself. But it is hard to do so. Every time I fall I wonder how I'm going to get back up this time.
So I'm listening too. And I am hearing you. I'm glad you are working through these things and being kind to yourself.
