You don’t have to fix yourself to start the day.
Feeling tired, unfocused, or heavy in the morning doesn’t mean anything is wrong.

I’m learning that living well isn’t about fixing every moment.
It’s about moving, noticing, and letting clarity show up on its own.
That’s a different way to think — and to live.

It shows up when the body starts moving and the mind gets a little space.
A walk isn’t about fixing anything — it’s about letting clarity catch up.
