I"m sure the topic of caffiene comes up a lot here but I have managed to get through the day without coffee by use of an instant coffee substitute made from roasted grains, chicory etc. I am still dosing it with hot chocolate powder though I understand the theobromine is less intense in its effect then caffeine. On some level I like the buzz coffee gives but its "side effects" are not worth it.
I also did some much needed bodily stretching today at lunch and could feel the tension and tightness that has been accumulating. I hope to make the yoga/stretching a more consistent practice.
