@dc_metro_therapy: It’s so tempting to cancel your plans after a rough night of sleep.  The fear is real — “I won’t function, I’ll be a mess, I should just give up now.” But here’s the truth: one poor night doesn’t erase your ability to show up. Our bodies are more resilient than we give them credit for, and often you’ll function better than you expect. When you cancel everything, you teach your brain that bad sleep = danger, which only fuels more insomnia. Instead, try moving gently through the day, adjusting where you need to, but still keeping some structure. Over time, this helps retrain your nervous system to trust that you’re safe even after a hard night. Want more strategies that actually ease sleep anxiety?
