Day 24: What about when you are sick?

image



Hi ,


A couple of the Healthy Sixers are sick. In private chats, they said - I don't feel like a smoothie. I feel like my comfort food. But I don't want to "waste" my 20 being sick. Here's a little tip: When you are sick, you are sick. Man (or woman) down. As someone who pushes hard through life, when I get sick I tend to listen to my body and allow it to do what it needs to do - recover. These little remedies below will help you recover faster, but sometimes you need to ride the wave.


I also recommend more stretching and mobility - keep your body moving in gentle ways when you aren't well.


And being "unwell" can mean that you are having a rough few days too. It can mean that you feel lacklustre about life. A gentle reminder: We prop ourselves up with cookies and wine and chips when we are feeling lacklustre - which leads to even less lustre. Fight through it, run yourself a bath, light a candle, be gentle with the harder days and remember the sun is always there - whether in splendour or behind a mask of clouds - it is always there.
