My workplace is offering this '90 days of health coaching' thing for free, and I was like, 'historically these things have been frustrating at best and actively detrimental to my health at worst, but sure! Sign me up!' Sometimes I make bad choices; I own that. (And sometimes I am like that bit in 'Bee Movie' -- "This time! This time! This time!")
ANYWAY. Part of the initial paperwork was this health history form, and one of the questions was, "At what point in your life did you feel your best?"
My feelings took a JOURNEY:
*first I was like, 'now?' and then I had to admit that it was definitely not now
*then I was like, 'why don't you just come and punch me in the face next time? I don't like this question'
*and also, 'I don't know the answer to this question and I don't know how I feel about that'
*with a side of, 'it would have to be before the 2016 election,' which ushered in a depressing awareness of some things I was probably happier not knowing
*then I got to the, 'does this question really matter?' stage, and considered just writing 'I don't know'
*I did not write that
*(I picked 2014, because even though I was Going Through Some Things, I was also very optimistic about things improving and my ability to influence that improvement)
So yesterday was a real rollercoaster of a day. Humorously, the health coach meeting isn't until tomorrow. Today's work adventure will hopefully be a little easier: HALLOWEEN BINGO.
