1. Chinese Text (中文)

我好像一直以来都不是个会好好休息的人。

记得读书的时候,每次放假回家总是要带上一堆练习册和试卷,然后开学的时候再原封不动地搬回学校去。

真的是每个假期都是这样,然后就开始后悔和自责。

工作以后,我也很不喜欢睡懒觉,总觉得睡觉很浪费时间。

我睡觉的时候大脑都在转个不停,每天晚上都做梦,早上都是在做到一半的梦中醒来。

我做的梦也都很日常,基本上就是把我白天在想的事情又重现了一遍,甚至是把我第二天要做的事情提前给预演了一遍。

我其实真的很羡慕那些周末就睡睡懒觉,啥梦也不做的人。

后来我才意识到,关于不能好好休息这件事,最大的杀伤力其实是【自我攻击】。

我既没有利用时间把事情做了,还要一直受懊悔情绪的困扰。

最近这段时间我每天喝茶,然后晚上就失眠。

一开始失眠的时候我又习惯性地自我攻击了,觉得躺在床上睡不着是在浪费时间。

到后来我干脆接受了,睡不着那就起来看看书好了,看到困了再去睡。

前几天我有点小感冒,睡了很多还是头很晕,一开始也是觉得一直躺着啥也没干,很焦虑,觉也不能好好睡。

后来也开始跟自己和解了,我就问自己,我要做的事情很多,也不是这一两天就能做完的吧,那我真的需要着急这两天就去做吗?

既然不是,那就趁机好好休息嘛。

我想跟同样不会好好休息的朋友说:自我攻击是习惯,但是自我接纳是可以练习的。

Example 1: 我是在北京出生的。

Pinyin: Wǒ shì zài Běijīng chūshēng de.
