for me, I don't usually wake up empowered. i wake up curious and willing to begin my day by structuring my cognitions: 1) grateful to be alive, etc. 2) look at the sky, be grateful for the morning 3) focus on what I see, eg. my husband, my dogs, my home, visual appreciation. If I wake up "in my head" I immediately as the higher self within me to GUIDE MY THOUGHTS and actions because if my ego gets out of bed first, I will tell a story of how screwed I am, when I am not.
Do you go to bed a night expecting the pain the next morning? Do you speak to the pain when it appears? Are you oversleeping? Undersleeping? Eating lousy before bed? There are extenuating factors that cause real headaches, including hormones, chocolate, all sorts of conditions we create.
I hang upside down a few times a day! Feels great. Either off the side of the bed or from a yoga trapeze. Fun. Far fewer headaches when we are playing with our bodies instead of fearing them.
