MichelleEnjoying that liminal space between graduation and full time work. Being hedonistic and doing some language training, brushing up on my Mandarin. I lived in Taipei for eight years and my speaking/listening are okay but my written is awful. Time to rectify that! Simultaneously doing French - easier to read and write than Mandarin but more challenging grammar! Funnily enough, during the phd I had access to free French classes but never had time to take them. The last time I studied French was many years ago. <br> <br> I am also learning how to build a website. I have noticed in the past little while how much space the phd took up and how many activities I need to fill that vacuum! All of the learning! <br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/Languages?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Languages</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/PhDRecovery?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PhDRecovery</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/LifeAfterPhD?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LifeAfterPhD</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/PhD?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PhD</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/Mandarin?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Mandarin</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/French?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#French</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/StudyTime?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#StudyTime</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/BrainCandy?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BrainCandy</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/FeedMyBrain?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FeedMyBrain</a>
MichellePup has the right idea. We are in rest mode over here. Once all the paperwork from finishing my PhD got completed, I crashed hard. I took a whole week off running. My watch has me in recovery mode. I've been doing yin, restorative yoga, and a lot of meditation. I feel like I need a little physical, mental, and emotional reset. I'm slowly easing back into running. I feel really different. My body feels really different. I am less stressed and anxious. I feel lighter. I'm a month out from the start of my training block for an 80km race in May. I'm really curious about how my body will feel in training when I'm not in the stress mode of a PhD. I'm hoping how light I feel emotionally will translate into fleet feet! <br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/SilentSunday?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SilentSunday</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/SleepingPuppy?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SleepingPuppy</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/DogsOfMastodon?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DogsOfMastodon</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/RecoveryMode?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RecoveryMode</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/Rest?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Rest</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/PhDLife?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PhDLife</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/PhD?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PhD</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/PhDone?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PhDone</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/PhDRecovery?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PhDRecovery</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/Yoga?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Yoga</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/DailyYoga?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DailyYoga</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/UltraTrail?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#UltraTrail</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/UltraRunning?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#UltraRunning</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/Running?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Running</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.de/discover/tags/Run?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Run</a>
