MAXED OUT - HELP! CAN'T HACK IT ANYMORE?

If you feel like you are overwhelmed, exhausted, burnt out, drained, lost, hopeless or lacking inspiration, maybe even depressed? This is a major sign that something is out of balance. My hope is to give you a few tools today that can help get you out of this crazy mess.

 

These symptoms are pretty familiar for people, like you, who like to drive hard. Whether you are trying to level up in your business, your career, in the things that you aspire for, or even just to be a better friend, partner or better at life in general, this is a common feeling. You just need to restore the imbalances in your body. Right now your body is just trying to cope, but there is hope. You can overcome this!

So, let me explain how you got here. At some point you crossed your threshold. Meaning back in college you stayed out and partied hard, studied hard and lost sleep, and then the stress after graduation financially to pay things back set in. You could be a new mom and your hormones could be off not to mention days of sleeping in are long gone. Even the volatile ups and downs of owning your own business can cause these imbalances. There are so many reasons why we cross our threshold and stay crossed.

 

I know it can be overwhelming, so now what?

 

Lets back it up, it’s time to support our system right where it is at! Rest, Relax get to bed on time, catch up on sleep. I know sleep might sound counter productive to your go go go lifestyle but it will, in the long run, pay you back with more energy and a feeling of having more time. Also, try to wean yourself off of anything you might be relying on for energy and be sure to MOVE your body.

 

If you feel as if you are to depleted to MOVE or exercise try starting with at least 5-minutes a day of movement, meeting yourself at a conscious and intention place where you get present with your body. It could be as simple as 5-minutes of intention breathing. This is amazing if you expend a lot of mental energy in day.

 

Over time you’ll begin to notice a change in your energy, and it will become the new normal. But just like when you workout, when things start to get easier you add more weight, you add more reps, the same thing applies here. This will begin to increase your threshold and level up your energy! Then continue to keep rinsing and repeating!

 

I hope you found this helpful, if so let me know in the comments below.

 

Until next time,
