How I Go From Overwhelm to Calm
May 02, 2021
A personal note from our Head Coach, Sandra.
Are you an overachiever?
(Yep, hand up over here – guilty!)
But, when I get too much on my agenda (which I’m prone to let happen often), I usually end up frustrated, anxious and distracted.
When I get overwhelmed, my ‘go to’ behaviour is …
- I make lists
- I get busier
- I can’t say no
- I add to those to-do lists
- I get irritable
- I get exhausted
- I get resentful
- I get nothing done
- I make more lists
But what I’ve found is that when I STOP to make SPACE …
If I stop doing ALL THE THINGS for an hour, an afternoon or a day …
That space I’ve made allows the CALM to return …
And when the calm returns, the FLOW comes back into that space and replaces the overwhelm!
And then …
- Everything becomes easier
- I get more done
- Little things don’t matter anymore
- I have more time
- I have more energy
- I move more
- I’m a better, nicer person to be around
What do you do when you realize you are becoming overwhelmed??
Happy Aligning!
