How have you been feeling lately?
My week has been pretty good. I’ve been experimenting with how to fit new things into my schedule — and noticing what truly supports me (and what doesn’t).
For example, when I work quite late on Tuesdays, Wednesday doesn’t flow. If I push through anyway, my body feels heavier and my mind gets noisier. So I’m naming Wednesday as my reset day— not a “wasted day”, but a day to come back to myself.
I’m also reducing my working hours slightly. The reason is simple: when I ask myself, **“How would I like to spend my day today?”** my answer is always the same:
I want to spend my day slow, simple, easy — but still fun.
Maybe you’re noticing this too: what used to work doesn’t work in this season.
New season: new conditions
When your life season changes — work, family, health, midlife shifts — the old routine may stop working.
It doesn’t mean you’re failing. It means your system is asking for new conditions.
This week I listened to James Clear (Atomic Habits), and one idea stayed with me:
we don’t need more willpower — we need better conditions.
So here’s a tiny reset you can try today.
CIA: Calm → Identify → Act (a gentle reset)
*Especially if you feel tired, heavy, tense, or “tired but wired.”*
C — Calm (60 seconds)
One hand on heart, one on belly.
Breathe **in 4 / out 6** for 6 rounds.
Say: **“I can meet this gently.”**
I — Identify (30 seconds)
Ask yourself (kindly):
“What “condition” am I repeating that isn’t working in this season?”
Examples:
– working late, then powering through the next day
– scrolling at night, then wondering why sleep feels light
– saying yes when my body wants to say no
– skipping breaks, then feeling snappy or flat
Just name one. No judgement — just noticing.
A — Act (5 minutes)
Close your eyes and be completely quiet for 5 minutes. Then ask:
“What is one simple, easy thing that would support me today?
Choose one tiny action:
– drink warm water / tea
– step outside for fresh air
– stretch your neck/shoulders for 60 seconds
– put a hand on your lower back and breathe
– send one message to reduce pressure (“Can we do tomorrow?”)
Try it once today — then notice: did you respond differently?
If you need help to regulate and reset (this isn’t luxury — it’s your being care)
Here’s a quick question I often ask:
“If one session could give you one thing this week, what would it be?”
Peace? Stillness? Better sleep? A calmer mind? Feeling like “I’m back in myself”?
