Sometimes, mornings are tough
We wake up worrying about many things,
Unable to focus on the tasks of the day.
Today, I woke up with a lot of pain
I could be hard on myself
I could pay attention to the bad things my illness brings me
But I decided to be kind to myself
recognizing I just need to take it easy
I want to have a homestead
Im doing research about it
Imagining my dream place soothes me
And now, I feel ready to start the day
We all have unhelpful thoughts
When you feel overwhelmed,
You should detach yourself from the situation
That way, you can gain control over your emotions
Im focusing on the way I prepare my breakfast
Thinking in the way I place my hands, the way I move
Im making hot chocolate
I love mocha coffee
When you feel in pain, emotional or physical,
Think of moments youre looking forward to in the future
Perhaps time with a friend or going to a movie
Im thinking about my next vacation
The idea brings me so much joy
that I dont mind washing the dishes
Today Im preparing pancakes!
Its a recipe you can try at home
Flour, baking powder, sugar, salt
An egg, butter, and milk
Time to make them!
Days dont have to be perfect,
Recognize the progress you make
Enjoy simple things
Be kind to yourself,
Youll get through this
Thank you for being with me today
