OK, so for the past couple of weeks I've been a major wreck panic and anxiety wise and thought I'd never pull up. I took today off work and had to go to Camberley to get my hair done. I was a bit anxious but unbelievably I got through the journey and the hairdressers and the whole day with no panic. I feel sooooo great.
Can't really say what I did to get through it, except to say everytime I felt a tense muscle I concentrated on relaxing it and keeping my breathing regular. Oh and talking to myself the whole journey telling myself how relaxed I was.
This doesn't always work, but it did today.
If you'd have seen the state of me on monday, one hour to do a 10 minute journey, then today; wow what a difference.
Right I'm off to enjoy some quiet time whilst kids are in bed.
