Left my overthinking self on the road :)

Since yesterday I was overthinking. I had this thought that kept bothering me. So today, I decided to walk outdoor after eating my dinner.

I walked towards the sunlight and I stopped to watch the sunset. I verbally talked out loud what bothering me and gave myself consoling words as if my friend was the one who had this overthinking thought (luckily nobody was there lol).

Then I before I walked back home, I imagined in my head, I left myself on that road and let the sun take care of her. Just like a movie scene, myself was in a blue luminesence looking at the sun and slowly the body dissolved when the sunlight touched her.

And I walked back, the sun was behind me, the overthinking self was no longer with me. My head became lighter and I am more calm now.

Also, when I walked back home, I watch my shadow bcs the sun was behind me and slowly the shadow faded as I walked.

Noticing that little thing and imagining in my head to let go my overthinking self were very therapeutic.

Walking is not only about losing weight, it is for the mind also 😊

Don’t forget to walk guys!

Bonus, the picture of the sun that welcomed me today ☀️
