I meant to reply to so many of your threats but got distracted by something else in the end. <br /><br />Anyhow, I actually wanted to reply to an older post where you ask what conductors do after they done work to keep up their energy. I know that energy or the lack thereof is a huge issue amongst us conductors after a long and eventful day. Especially as you cannot leave this kind of work at work. There is always something going on that keeps the mind on work topic long after you come home (or at least thats what happens to me a lot). Just yesterday on my day off, i earned some disapproving looks of my boyfriend as I got stacked again in the children toys section at a supermarket in search of new ideas. (Btw I cannot wait to try my new toys out this week)<br /><br />However, after I finished university i have been very conscious about not letting work take over me too much. For me different sports seemed to be a great battery recharger. I find great pleasure in playing different team sport like soccer and my latest adventure rugby, as they demand from me to give it all of my attention. I also indulge in my yoga practices. It helps to let go stresses or if that doesnt work it helps at least to observe whats going on. <br /><br />Its important to have those "bits in between" to give us enough energy to give back to our kids and adults. And like you, Im interested in what other conductors do.<br /><br />AennaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
