sometimes my best friend would ask me, when were in the car, or just on the beach, "what are you thinking?" and i'd just say "nothing". it was true. i was just in total repose in the universe. a lot of the time, i just didn't have thoughts https://t.co/hk7OWgb2RL
an unexpected effect of a more regulated nervous system is a 4 hour drive doesn't feel like a lot. a 40 minute walk doesn't feel like a lot. waiting 10 minutes for the washer to finish feels fine. they used to feel intolerable https://t.co/KELjdMT7tf
i still felt me, when i wasn't thinking. i was just vibing. i felt like i was a breathing body next to other breathing bodies. i "felt" things more than thought about them. i enjoyed my best friends' presence. i enjoyed the beach. just being was enough
or when i did have a lot of work, i felt like i seamlessly transitioned in and out of just vibing mode. and somehow there was still an underlying feeling of still just vibing, even when i was at work, that i could seamlessly connect with at any moment
