One of the most difficult things to do it to listen to my body. I start doing something, want to continue, and then overdo it.
I am slowly learning ( after 2 years) that it is okay to do things in small steps, to stop when I am tired, and it's really important to sleep as needed.
After all, the brain needs rest too!
And it's a great idea to ditch the alarm clock!
I am so glad it hasn't happened since.
