Mental Health Therapy Service

I used to think being overwhelmed meant I just needed to be more organized or push a little harder. But the truth is, my nervous system wasn’t overloaded because of a lack of planning, it was because I didn’t feel safe enough to slow down. Now, when I feel that familiar tension creeping in, I don’t reach for another productivity hack. I pause. I check in with my body. I ask what I actually need. And most importantly, I remind myself: I don’t need to push through. I need care, space, and compassion. If you’re feeling overwhelmed too, maybe it’s not a flaw or a failure. Maybe it’s a message. You don’t need to do more. You need to feel safe. 🌿 Save this as a gentle reminder for the days that feel like too much. https://www.lifebydesigntherapy.com/
