✨ Therapy Insight of the Day ✨

"Stress resting" is when a person attempts to rest (sit still, nap, or take a break), but cannot mentally disengage because of persistent anxious thoughts or internal chatter.
• The body is still, but the mind is on overdrive.
• Thoughts often revolve around “what if” scenarios, future worries, or replaying past events.
• Instead of feeling refreshed, the person feels mentally exhausted and often guilty for not being productive.

✨ Therapy Insight of the Day ✨
The next time you say, “I just want to be happy,” “I just want to be successful,” or “I just want to be loved,” try this:
Ask yourself, “What does that actually look like for me?”

Can you paint a picture of what that goal really means in your life?

Clarity creates direction. When you can visualize it, you can pursue it with intention. You don’t have to share your vision with the world - you can talk to a therapist, sometimes it’s enough to tell a trusted confidante…or simply tell GOD.🙏🏾

💡 Happiness, success, and love aren’t just words—they are personal journeys. Define yours.
