This was us on Friday.
Absolutely soaked. đ
And we were all laughing.
But catch me on a different day tired, rushing, already stressed, thinking about work, dinner, the house and everything else I havenât done and this could have felt VERY different.
The rain hasnât changed.
My capacity has.
And I think we forget that.
When your stress bucket is already nearly full, it doesnât take something huge to make it overflow.
Someone interrupts you.
The kids start arguing.
You canât find your keys.
An email comes through.
Someone makes one comment.
And suddenly youâre completely overwhelmed by something youâd normally handle.
Itâs not really about that one thing.
You had no room left for it.
Thatâs why part of the work I do with hypnotherapy is about reducing whatâs already sitting in that bucket the anxiety, overthinking and background stress rather than waiting until youâre overwhelmed and trying to deal with it then.
The aim isnât a life where nothing stressful happens.
Itâs having enough capacity that every little thing doesnât feel like the final straw.
If you feel like youâre permanently one small thing away from your bucket overflowing, message me to book a free consultation.
