Sometimes a lot of us take on a little more than is capable of us. Especially if we're used to having quite a relaxed work load.
Something I've found personally is that our bodies can get so used to a relaxed daily routine. I'm in uni only a couple of days a week, and if I wasn't doing uni, I was writing for this. Now each blog post I write doesn't take me a particularly long time to write. So a lot of last year I was lazing around, and now I've decided to pursue multiple things and take on certain commitments. My bodies struggling to keep up with everything!
One mistake I've been making, which I know a lot of people make, particularly students, is that if we decide to take on a lot of different commitments, we find ourselves slotting in periods where we can take a short sleep, or 'Nap'. Instead of getting a good nights rest! I can't remember the last time I slept through the night.
Now I'm struggling to sleep at all because my mind is always buzzing with all these tasks I've committed myself to doing, I become very physically tired, but mentally very awake.
My advice to anyone taking on new work loads/commitments etc, that need to take a whole lot of time from your day, is to ease yourself into it. There's nothing wrong with jumping in at the deep-end and taking things on, but if you're not used to taking on time-consuming commitments, ease your body into it a little more.
And sustain a healthy body clock.
Don't be like me and go to bed after my 9am lectures, rather than before! You will feel pretty zombie-a-fied just like me!
But if anyone does have any suggestions that can help me get a good nights sleep etc, I'd love to hear it and try some out! It would be interesting to see which one of these methods work!
Hope everyone out there is well!
