It is possible to develop a sense of how much energy you have. And to know that in the moment, and to grow more choices in how you use your energy. And when you use your energy so that you don’t overdo it.

@hmm_cook Intentionally working on this over the last 18 months has drastically changed my life. I feel like my lifestyle and my energy is so much more sustainable and steady, instead of a rollercoaster of high energy excitement and low energy deep burnout.

However, it requires breaking allistic training.

We actually have to listen and feel our minds and bodies, instead of ignoring them.

After decades of ignoring them, it takes time, effort, and energy.
