Managing Your Overwhelm

It's Mindset Monday! Today we're talking overwhelm. Modern life offers myriad ways and reasons to sometimes feel overwhelmed. Life throws you curveballs out of nowhere, people disappoint you, the news can be scary, and to make it worse, screws fall out all the time. The world's an imperfect place. (Bonus points if you know that quote!)

When overwhelm happens, what can you do? Well the good news is, you always have options. You can cry about it. (BTW, that really does help you feel better and shift perspective!)

You can talk to someone which often helps you get clarity and make your swirly thoughts stop swirling. You can ask yourself "What action can I take next that will alleviate one of the things creating this feeling?" and then take that action. Which of these options is the best one?

Surprise! It's al of them. Have yourself a good cry or scream to release the physical tension of overwhelm, then talk to someone you trust to help you get clarity, then discern what if any action you can take right away, and then take that action. Action is always the antidote. Have a powerful week!
