Take care of yourself first. Downtime is important, and the body will always tell you what it needs. Sometimes subtly, other times...not so much.

Don't be afraid to just kick back, lie on the grass, and watch the clouds roll by. When life has us feeling off-balance and generally exhausted, it's time to give respite to mind, body, and soul. Not that it makes all of our responsibilities disappear, but it can help us manage them and get back on track and regain a solid center of gravity.

Letting go of all expectations can be incredibly liberating. No sense worrying about the things we can't control. Even when there's music bubbling around inside of us, there's nothing wrong with just sitting quietly and doing nothing from time to time. Not doing something or thinking anything in particular; just living in the moment and appreciating that the world doesn't fall apart just because we've stopped moving.

Take a beat, take a breath, and take care of yourself. Everything else is secondary.

Thanks for your advice, I appreciate it. It's been hard to let go of that feeling, especially when my activities are so entangled with online presence. I know it's completely irrational, and I know I don't have to respond to anyone's expectations of me right now. All I can say is that I will try to give my own thoughts some proper fallout.
