remove all the thinking
Oh and it is glorious, and very satisfying, when inspiration strikes and something just gets done.
I suspect a large part of that is due to neuro-chemical balance, mediated by the right vitamins, minerals, herbs, aromatherapy, sound therapy, environmental conditions, mood priming, etc, etc, etc.
how dialled in and consistent
I've oddly fought against to much of this, "preferring" more novelty, knowing how much more sensitive to change I get the more consistent things get. Kinda like keeping myself robust to change, with the neuroplasticity generated from the hormesis from novelty and lots of little changes and variety. ... Though that in itself is fairly inconsistently applied. Some things like that, some things more reliably consistent. I found this helped me find more peaceful confidence in my ability to handle whatever curve balls were thrown at me in life. ~ At least, until the big one. Then I didn't seem to have much choice about falling into a routine, and that atrophying, making changes (or even appointments) much (MUCH) more difficult to cope with again. Been dealing with coming out of an atrophied body. It takes a long time of gentle practice to start to see progress throughout the long dragged-out start. And then it accelerates. Much the same happens in our neurophysiology as in our muscles.
realizing that what felt like something that should be super stressful really wasn’t
And it's a glorious thing to get there, past the tight claustrophobic/myopic feedback loops that make it seem worse than it is.
