Anxiety
In its essence, anxiety isn't inherently negative; it's a signal, telling us something about our inner and outer world. They're invitations to explore, understand, and ultimately, transform. ​
Do any of these sound familiar?

My mind feels foggy and scattered, making it hard to focus on tasks or retain information.
-
I feel overwhelmed by even simple tasks, leading to procrastination or avoidance.
-
Despite feeling exhausted, I struggle to relax or get restful sleep due to persistent worries and racing thoughts.
-
Activities I once found enjoyable now feel like burdens, as my anxiety drains the pleasure from them.
-
I withdraw from social interactions, fearing judgment or criticism from others, which further exacerbates feelings of loneliness and isolation.
-
I'm constantly on edge, anticipating the worst-case scenario in every situation, which only adds to my anxiety.

The combination of anxiety and burnout leaves me feeling emotionally drained and physically depleted, with little energy to cope with daily challenges.

I engage in harsh self-criticism and negative self-talk, fueling feelings of inadequacy and worthlessness.
