At 19:00, did 45 minutes of Yoga. Was able to stretch to lengths I haven't been able to in a while with ease. Probably has to do with muscles having so much time to recover since my last run. This has left me very calm and at ease, setting a great tone for the rest of the night.
I have been sleeping in lately. Getting a solid seven to eight hours of sleep each night. The last hour of sleep has been very important, as I've had some extremely vivid dreams. The content of the dreams is indiscernable static when trying to remember them now. What has stuck is the emotional impact and the characters in the dream. They have been filled with friends, some of who I have not seen in a long time. I'm reminded of the Directors commentary to Donnie Darko, where Richard Kelly talks about each character having their good-bye moment with Donnie. I don't feel as though my dream friends are saying good-byes, so much as reminders of our encounters and shared experiences. I wake up very relaxed because of it.
The following TED Talk is on the topic of sleep, so I think it appropriate to share now.
