Hi Reader,

If you’ve been feeling foggy, flat, or strangely numb lately, I want you to hear this clearly:

You’re not failing at life. There's nothing wrong with you.
There is seriously way too much going on for our nervous systems to keep up.

This isn't an excuse to tune out of what's going on in the world, but it is an invitation to turn it down.

As an example, the Ep. Files (you know the ones) - we know they're horrible. They're more horrible than any horror film created and produced. They show exactly the kind of evil that people in power are capable of - an evil that most movie writers scripting fiction either couldn't come up with or would never dream of committing to paper.

You don't need to read all the details or doom scroll through post after post about them to know their horrible. Yes, it's important to know the names of the offenders, but no, you don't have to read every little detail to know who those people are.

Instead, call your representatives and demand that the remaining names of the offenders be unredacted. That's a far more productive use of your energy than scrolling for hours on end and feeding your nervous system horror after horror.

If you're worn about by it all, your nervous system is telling you that something needs to change. You don't need to double down on effort or engagement with a particular topic. Instead, you need a different way of relating to your energy, your time, and your expectations.

This applies to everything from current events to small demands on your time.

Today, I invite you to try this one small thing:​
Before you say yes to anything — an email, a favor, a plan — pause and ask your body, “Do I actually have the capacity for this?”

Not time, not motivation or some other patriarchal concept I talk about on the podcast this week, but capacity.

Breaking up with burnout doesn’t start with a grand overhaul. It starts with tiny moments of honesty with yourself.

xoxo,
Megan
