How to Stop Feeling Overwhelmed – Ep 131

I’d love to hear from you! Text me

How often do you find yourself feeling overwhelmed?

I still do, more often than I would like to. This summer I have been feeling it a lot. 

As I was thinking about how to move out of this cycle of overwhelm I documented the process so I could share it with you. 

This week’s podcast highlights 3 phases of getting out of overwhelm. You might only need 1 or 2 of the phases. Sometimes you need all 3.

  1. Ask “What is the smallest step I could take to show myself I’m not stuck?”
  2. Ask “What am I gaining by staying stuck? How am I benefitting from this?”
  3. Identify the thoughts and feelings that are present as you think about what is overwhelming you.

I walk you through a real example in my own life. You can hear the difference in thoughts or lies that are easy to deal with and one that hits me pretty hard. I left it raw on purpose.

Give it a try the next time you are feeling overwhelmed and let me know how it goes.
