Fun fact! That always busy feeling could actually be your brain’s way of avoiding emotions. 🤔
For many, keeping busy acts as a coping mechanism, a way to avoid facing difficult emotions or past experiences. When we don’t slow down, we don’t give ourselves the chance to truly acknowledge the pain, grief, or fears we may be carrying. It’s a fear based distraction, a shield against the emotional work that we might be avoiding.
Slowing down might just be the best thing for your heart and mind! Ready to try it? Take a moment to pause today and check in with yourself.
Drop a ❤️ if you’re committed to slowing down and embracing some self-care this week!
