Overwhelm

🧠 “It’s Not All in Your Head - It’s in Your Nervous System”

Feeling overwhelmed? You’re not alone, and you’re not broken.

Have you ever sat there thinking:

“Why can’t I just get on with it?”
“Other people seem to cope just fine, what’s wrong with me?”

Here’s the truth:
Overwhelm doesn’t mean you’re weak.
It usually means your nervous system is doing its job, a little too well.

When you’ve been carrying stress, self-doubt, or old emotional weight for a long time, your brain learns to stay on high alert.
That can look like:

• Overthinking everything

• Feeling frozen even when the to-do list is small (even more when large)

• Snapping or withdrawing when something feels “too much”

• Exhaustion from constantly holding it all together

• Procrastination!

💡 It’s not laziness. It’s not lack of willpower. It’s your system trying to protect you, based on outdated programming. It really is just trying to keep you safe. But like an over protective parent....it is too much.

I also have a technique I suggest to people - Brain Dumpling. It is not supposed to be neat, or methodical. It is just dumping all your thoughts, feelings, worries, what ever is in your mind - onto paper. You do not even have to read it again. It is just getting it out of your mind that is important.

It does two things.

1 - It gets it out of your mind - so it stops swirling around.

2 - It helps your mind start to process things more easily.

✨ The good news?

You can rewire those patterns.

You can stop the over protection.
But it starts with understanding what’s going on beneath the surface.

That’s exactly why I offer free discovery calls.
Not a sales pitch.
Not a pressure conversation.

You’re not broken. You’re just human.
