What a beautiful post, Jeni.
I like the way you are replacing your negative thoughts with positive thinking and images. I think I should start doing the same routine because my morning-thinking is still far from being positive.
A positive, mature, confident adult replaces the lost child. - can I borrow this phrase?))
I had sleeping issues too when I quit. I suffered from terrible insomnia for about 4 months. It was real torture.
I hope you'll get some good sleep tonight with relaxing sweet dreams where you'll see the real badass jeni)
