You haven't earned your rest

The body pulls me down

I see the curtain closing

The darkness folding over

The weighted anchor locking me down

I don’t fight it, only because I can’t anymore.
I soften.
I let go.
I give in.

But I wake up in a hurry

Heart beating
Body tensing
Urgently reaching for something to do

My system searching for ways to make up for lost time

“You haven’t earned your rest” I hear

As the warm wash of guilt rolls in and pulls me into triggered action

Can’t stop opening Instagram

Compulsively creating plans and goals

Scheming for ways to be better

But

If instead of waiting for my body to shut the doors, to where I have no choice

I notice the impulse to rest
Slow
Pause
Drop down

And
I get on the side of my body

I CHOOSE rest

I DECIDE to give my body what it’s needing before she forces me to..

She thanks me.
She pulls me down
And down.
She opens.
She reveals.
She transforms.
