Oof. Sometimes, especially with certain people in our lives, it can be waaay too easy to get pulled into their storm. Next thing you know, you've become ungrounded; you find yourself swimming through emotional chao, and energetic lethargy isn't that far behind. When you realize this has happened, breathe, ground yourself, call your energy back, and then pat yourself on the back. Yes, pat yourself on the back; sure, you got caught up, but eventually, you caught on to the fact that you were caught up, and then decided to gently move towards untangling yourself. That's no small feat, people; it deserves a mini-parade (of at least a single occupancy float ;) )
Good luck with the rest of your day, folks.
Cheering. You. On
