The Comfort of Repetition
What part of your routine do you always try to skip if you can?
I have a morning routine of sorts, but it’s the nighttime routine that is the most important. It’s what has given me the opportunity to relax and get a better quality of sleep. I listen to the Calm App, specifically the Daily Jay every night unless I have a trip to a play or a concert. When I listen, one of two things happen. Either I take the three centering breaths and go straight to sleep or I listen to Jay Shetty’s reflection on the subject of the day and often get a lot out of it.
Can I skip it? Well, yes I can if I have to as I said, but it isn’t ideal. I use the Daily Jay to prompt me to take my cholesterol tablet each night so it has a twofold effect. If I don’t have the Daily Jay I have to really concentrate on the tablet when I get home. I am off to see Wet Leg at the Royal Albert Hall with my daughter tomorrow so I will not have my Daily Jay then. Mind you, it’s going to be worth it, that’s for sure.
