Hi everyone…
Wednesday woo!
So, I’ve been getting up for my workouts this week no problem! Which I’m very excited about. However, the one thing I am having issues with this week is being absolutely exhausted and ready for bed at 9pm and not being able to turn my brain OFF.
This is making me exhausted! I feel like once I lay down I think about a million things and fidget and it takes me so much longer to fall asleep. I mean, once I’m asleep I’m golden, but relaxing before bed has be TOUGH! I am constantly thinking of the 4 million things I have to do tomorrow. I’m sure many, many of you feel the exact same way. My brain hurts. Seriously.
So because of this I’m sure you’ve noticed I just will not be blogging as much and I’m sure you’re all okay with that haha. I just hate forcing blog posts when I”m tired and cranky and honestly have nothing to talk about. I’d rather write some posts that actually have content (okay..I pretty much always ramble) than some just to write them. Sometimes my only time for myself is at the end of the day, besides at the gym.
Speaking of gym..lifting has been awesome. If I feel confident enough I will update you on my progress
The only thing is I don’t have a lot of time to do cardio so I’ve been missing out the past few days! I hate when I don’t get some form of it in. When I do have time I’ve been doing the stair mill on intervals to get the most bang for my buck!
ANYWAYS, back to the main point. I am hoping that my routine settles in soon and I can somehow manage to relax my brain at night time. Meditation perhaps? Yoga?? I would love to find another yoga DVD that is more ‘zen’ like since my Jillian DVD is more of a workout. Although it has to be short so I can hold my concentration ha!
- Do you have trouble shutting your brain off at night?



I hate when I’m trying to go to sleep but my brain just keeps thinking and thinking and thinking! Sometimes its so annoying. I try to watch tv and just lay there but usually I’m up all night!
Ugh thankfully it’s not all night but it’s very frustrating cause im so tired!
SAME DEAL HERE I hate it. Like you, I have to get up early to work out so when I want to go to bed at 9 I just can’t get my mind to let me. ugh!
I know. I need not wonder why I’m so tired through the day. Boo
I’ve had that feeling before! Recently though my issue is that I fall right to sleep but wake up at 3am wide awake and ready to go! It makes no sense! Hopefully u can begin to relax soon!! Spalove!
Ugh I hate that too! I’m glad I haven’t had that happen in a while
Story of my life, EVERY SINGLE NIGHT.
Ugh so frustrating!!
Oh yes, it’s like my brain doesn’t have an off switch. I do try to read to make myself sleepy before bed and that also keeps me away from the tv or computer.
Oh yes I know I need to keep my phone away. Darn addicting iPhone
My brain constantly spins when I try to go to sleep; I hope you find rest soon! And don’t worry about not posting as much; quality over quantity.
Good! Glad you agree
