Over the past two weeks I have reduced my intake of caffeine by one half and I have taken baby steps towards a regular yoga practice. The caffeine reduction program was admittedly on accident for the first few days, but since then I have gone along with it to see how far I could make it.
I have had a mild allergic reaction to something in bloom right now which has caused me to wake up with a congested head each morning. So instead of heading directly for the coffee in the morning I was going for a cup of hot water with a lime to help clear the congestion a bit. After this warm beverage I have only been interested in one cup of coffee. So accidentally I fell into this one, but I was happy with the way things were progressing until this afternoon.
This afternoon I had a really good headache and I couldn't fathom why. Then I realized that I didn't drink the warm water beverage this morning and didn't even finish my cup of coffee. So - I inadvertently tried to reduce my caffeine intake yet again by half. It didn't work. But for some reason my coffee just didn't taste good to me this morning, so I didn't drink it. Rational - but not for a long standing headache sufferer. More like stupid.
So this afternoon I am sipping on my refreshing Coca Cola and my head is slowly improving.
I found this quote today as part of a group of doodlebats at ScrapNFonts as part of the Wild West Font Bundle.
I like this cowboy philosophy group a lot. I will continue to share some of them with you over time.
But back to this one and today's struggle with caffeine and good health! I think that this quote is fitting as for the past two weeks I have been on the getting end of the caffeine reduction whereas today - I got got!
