As reported yesterday, I stayed home and slept most of the day, feeling tired, heavy and very low on energy. I still felt that way when I first got up, but as the day went on - even though the cold symptoms are still with me - I felt more and more energy, more even than on a normal, healthy day.
What is going on? I'm sick, I should be feeling drained, or feeling a little better than yesterday, like the tide has slowly turned. But no, underneath the congested, drippy exterior, something has kicked in a hyper-energy level for the day. How I feel isn't aligned with how I think I should feel.
Tomorrow I'll likely find out if my zippyness today was like the last burst of a burned out star before it collapses into a black hole (I find that the cold is not going away but was just gathering itself for a major assault), or if this particular cold was just quick and not especially severe.
Whatever the situation turns out to be, I'm happy to have had a better day than I expected, as this was the big day of the January yoga teacher training weekend, with two 3-hour sessions. Had my energy been down and the cold worse, I could have been miserable, or perhaps had to skip the session. Instead, I had a good day, learning a lot and enjoying being with the teachers and other students.
