I Am Not Asking You. I Am Telling You.
Wednesday, November 14th
During morning meditation, I asked my Spirit Guide Somoya what I needed to know for today. I then heard an internal voice say, "I am not asking you. I am telling you."
My interpretation of Somoya's message is still regarding to how I care for myself, as I get myself back into shape. Yesterday, I did some treatment work on my knee. I did cross fiber friction on the lateral ligament and energy work. I am being very mindful of walking rather than jogging this week. I am also taking it slow walking down big hills. While falling asleep last night, I gave myself another Reiki treatment. I feel a little less sore today. I am thrilled I don't feel worse! I did have to walk a lot yesterday for my job.
Today and moving forward, I am adhering to Somoya's weekend advice, regarding just compete with myself and not others. Go at my pace to gain back my strength, without re-aggravating old injuries or creating new ones. What's interesting, is before Monday's difficult spin class began, I overheard two women speaking. One stated she just recently injured herself in spin class and has had to take time off and take an anti-inflammatory. The other woman stated best to take it easy this evening (Monday) rather than cause more injury. I recall thinking in the moment that I am strong and I wouldn't get injured in a spin class. I have been humbled. My memories of being a teen don't coincide with the reality of my current physical condition at age 46. I need to be patient, disciplined, and realistic. It I am patient and increase my strength slowly, I will be just fine. Cycling as a workout will be sustainable for me in the long run.
