Swimming

Today I went swimming again for the first time in month! I get very tense in the upper back after sitting in a bad position on the computer. So I went to get a massage that was …painful! I complained to my masseuse about waking at night, my mind rambling with thoughts. She said I should exercise more so that my body was tired when my mind has an overload.  I dislike running utterly but I can swim for one hour without problem. I love being in water, gliding, feeling light and not sweating! So in addition to my 3 hours of aerobics a week, I will be trying to get 1 or 2 hours of swimming. When I swim, I think and almost forget that I am in the water. Someone once told me it is like meditating.

What really bugs me at this point is how slowly I advance in my project. The days I don’t get any work done, I feel extremely guilty and then wake up in the middle of the night thinking about it. Overall I think I have a concentration issue. I cannot sit still and concentrate on my work for very long. The worse is that I start surfing and look up the most stupid things on the web: recipes, medicine, imdb biographies, youtube etc…

So I have tried to take some homeopathy which might have helped. Now I am at the point where I play Mozart’s symphonies. I heard that it has a positive and calming effect on plants and on babies, so why not? I have 5 CDs so that should keep me for a while.  :)
