#pretrip

Look at meeeee not worrying. Actually consciously putting myself in a mindset of enjoyment, no matter what. Chilling out is possible, just going with the flow. What is her name on Community!!! Loosey goosey 😂😂

Yesterday I woke up with the worst migraine and stress at like whatever in the morning and it was the worst. I consciously told myself that I should be ENJOYING a trip, just like I enjoyed going to Vegas or PEI. Remember that feeling, mind and body? Remember how it feels to be relatively safe, and just allow the journey to proceed as it goes? Remember how you've pretty much done EVERYTHING to ensure you've been 'smart' about this and will not be humiliated or punished for 'failing' to succeed? Remember all that????

Anyway today I woke up alive and refreshed, good night of sleep (kinda weird? but good) and feeling so energized and okay with life. Still with telling myself the reminders. Goddamn 'affirmations' can work, but I'd like to just call them reminders instead. Reminder to my silly brain: things will work out. You will be safe. You are not doing anything wrong.

Stressing out isn't going to help me. Why am I so worried about doing it right? About travelling right, arriving right. No one will be angry at me if I am confused at an airport. If I'm late, then I'll deal with it. E and L will already be there.

What if's help no one. Enjoy the process.

Covid IS scary, this is true. Just be vigilant about that, because it's the only part of the trip that you should be stressing about.
