Anxiety and Depression

You may charge life at full throttle.

It’s time for bed – your anxious brain is still firing on all cylinders. Your body is exhausted, but you can’t shut off your thoughts.

Over and over, the day’s events replay in your head – incessantly highlighting all the scenarios you ‘shoulda’ done differently.

Then there’s tomorrow. Ugh.

Where have you gone?

Somehow, you’ve lost sight of your own goals and dreams.

Always worried about what everyone else is doing or thinking, there’s no time left for you.

If only you could wake up feeling restored and release the anxiety that’s running you ragged…

Anxiety wreaks havoc.

It grips the chest, shortens the breath, hounds you with non-stop annoying thoughts.

A little-known fact is that anxiety is also a survival instinct and part of human biology. It’s protecting you from what you perceive as “danger” – a mean boss, a looming deadline, a dreaded social event.

It’s your body telling you, “No, no, no!” while your brain is saying, “Go, go, go!”

Or perhaps you’re crawling your way into the day.

Showing up and getting through the day feels like a chore.

The sun is shining – your world feels cloudy. Dishes piled up in the sink. Laundry piling up on the floor. Dread, hopelessness, lethargy – all are weighing you down.

You have no energy left to care.

Depression is a bummer.

You want to pull your covers over your head.

Your survival mechanism wants you to curl up in a little ball and not deal.

Brain fog has you looking at the world with dirty lenses, and you’ve learned to live with that.

Where is your happy place?

Close your eyes. Imagine your happy place. What is it?

Take the plunge. Get fully immersed in it – what do you see, feel, hear, smell? Notice how your body feels in that space.

Stay there for just a moment more. Feels good, right?

Getting back to that place of joy, happiness, and lightness is possible.
