Hopefully not a tumor
I've been having low level headaches for about 6 weeks now, which means one of 2 things. Either I have a brain tumor, or I'm not doing as great a job managing stress as I think I am.
At first I thought it was a by-product of theWhole30 challenge that Matt and I were doing. I've managed to stay pretty hydrated recently, so that's not it, but I thought perhaps cutting out sugar and dairy was effecting me in weird ways. But we ended that, I binged on sugar, I'm still hydrated, and the headaches keep coming. That, combined with the fact that every time I'm driving in the car I realize that I have to focus to get a full deep breath, makes me think my stress level is pegged even though I seem to think I'm mentally great. Or I have a brain tumor. I hope it's the stress thing.
The downside to that is that I don't actually think I'm that stressed. I do my whole Miracle Morning routine each weekday, so I'm getting some exercise, some meditation, and some reading in - and it makes me feel great! I'm trying to shut off work in the evenings, and I'd say I'm about 65% successful at that. So what is going on? Why is my body telling me that my mind is lying to me?!?!
*sigh*
