I listened to the first signal instead of waiting for the third

Dear Delyara, That is the form of progress I want to keep building. I’m used to ignoring the first sign. Sometimes the second too. Fatigue, tension, heaviness, irritation, the subtle body-noises that say something needs adjusting before it becomes a problem. This week I listened earlier. That felt wiser than any version of pushing through would have. And kinder. I think health is going to have to be built through earlier listening in me, or not at all. This week, I managed a little more of that.
