I cannot even believe that I am FINALLY in front of my laptop again. Tuesday night, Adam and I had a lovely night in and made a version of this vegan buddha bowl. It was such a delicious and healthy meal, we were both feeling great! I was finishing off my small glass of red wine post meal, when my throat all of a sudden felt swollen and painful. That was it, I was done for. Since then, I’ve basically been fighting this horrible beast of a flu-like sickness. I tried my hardest to fight it, but ended up with a TWO DAY migraine, which I wouldn’t wish on anyone. Essentially, I have been asleep, unable to handle light or noise or being awake. I didn’t even charge my phone for almost 3 days, because I wasn’t even on it. When I’m not eating AND not using my phone, you know I’m really ill!
Luckily, in my sleepy fog last night, I dreamt that I did some yoga to ease my headache. Despite waking up with the same migraine pain, I took some ibuprofen, and did this yoga video and then this one. Then, I had some water, put my Saje Soothing Herbal Eye Shade, and had a nap. I woke up, and for the first time in two days, felt like a human again. It’s glorious I tell ya, just glorious! Thankful that my dreams relayed a practical and effective healing method to me, because I don’t know if I could have handled another day in bed.
Anyway, this is obviously not how I wanted to end the year, but damnit 2016 just had to have the last word. I’m still hoping to do a recap post for tomorrow! Hope you guys have all had a better week than I have, wishing you lots of love and light as you bring in the new year xo
