So I spent the weekend doing very little thinking about school. I did study, but tried to approach it as unconnected to a forthcoming test or oral presentation. For fun and personal research, I pretended. I think this helped. At least I didn't have a headache all weekend.
I'll try this approach this week and see if I can do it.
I'm not sure what will happen with this term, and I don't think I can make a decision about changing to a lower class at this point. Maybe I can trust my teachers will know the right thing to do. But if I can't do this without headaches and nausea, something will have to give. I am working to be a more relaxed Buddha like human, but it might take a little longer than 12 weeks.
Anyway, it's a warm, breezy day in Tokyo, and it feels to good to ruin it with worrying.
