Unexplained anxiety can hit us when we least expect it. This weekend was filled with a visit to a new mall, we went to see a new movie and today was spent catching up on some art and craft projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So why am I feeling anxiety today, my Yorkie was feeling a little under the weather yesterday but nothing that should have made me feel anxious or sad. My tennis elbow has been bad today but it comes and goes. I’ve even had some encouraging comments about something we are planning for 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although I did get many things done today with my arts and crafts I still felt like all I did was keep my head down, went through the motions, and my brain just kind of zoned out and tuned everything else out. By late afternoon I was drained of all energy and honestly didn’t even feel like doing this blog post today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I didn’t have to be in our home office all day today but as I was feeling anxious and a little sad today I spent the day where I knew I would be the happiest, in our office sitting next to my husband as he worked. Being in the next room watching TV or playing video games meant that I would be away from him and that would just make me feel sadder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ever since I started on my Happiness Journey, not every day is perfect. Although I spent much time working on my own positive mindset and focusing on the things in my life that make me happy I still occasionally have a day once in a blue moon where I get hit with unexplained anxiety or sadness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I know days like this will come and go, and thanks to a lot of the self-care I’ve done over the years days like today will be a small blip, in the end, what we can accomplish is to not let the anxiety or sadness control us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
