My Garmin watch told me again that my stress is high. And this time, it was spot on. I was genuinely thinking about how I have to get all these things done, and how it's not exactly easy, because I'm simultaneously zoning out and can't sit still. (Hello, ADHD).
When another wave of unpleasant sensations washed over me: my usual pain + the realization that tough tasks lay ahead, the watch suggested doing some timed breathing. (Relaxation exercises).
I have no idea what kind of magic they use to pull this off, but apparently, it works. I'll keep monitoring it and keeping you posted.
P.S. Today is Mother's Day, don't forget to send your love.
