Are you feeling completely overwhelmed? It happens to the best of us. Life can be challenging, and you might feel overloaded.
A constant sense of overwhelm can contribute to declining mental health. It can also impact your job performance and relationship happiness. Would you recognize these signs of burnout in your life?
- Feeling exhausted all the time
- Never having any energy
- Feeling negative and cynical about work, relationships, and/or life
- Reduced productivity and/or frequent errors
- Constant feelings of stress
Additionally, you may be experiencing heightened anxiety, racing thoughts, fatigue, difficulty sleeping, and other signs of stress. Don’t be discouraged! The following brain dumping exercise could help you eliminate some of the overwhelm you might be experiencing. It might sound strange, but give it a try and see if it helps you feel less stressed.
You May Need a Break
Life doesn’t have to be an exhausting rat race. If you’ve reached the point where you’re beginning to feel overloaded, you might want to give this brain dumping exercise a try. It could help eliminate some stress in your life and help remind you just how strong and capable you really are of achieving anything you set your mind to doing.
In addition to this brain dumping activity, you can utilize other coping skills. Learn to delegate responsibilities when possible. Ask for help when you feel overwhelmed. Make time for meditation and movement in your day. Learn to silence your inner critic to become your own supportive best friend. Your stress may decrease as you prioritize self-care and enter a healthier mental space.
Trying TOO Much?
The truth is that you can’t keep going in a state of feeling overwhelmed forever. High levels of stress can weaken your immune system. It can destroy your quality of life and create problems in your relationships. You might think you’re climbing the ladder of success, but in reality, you could be headed for a breakdown.
If your brain fills like it’s full, it might be time to take out the trash! Dump those extra, stress-filled thoughts so you can get back to being fabulous, productive, and powerful. Go ahead. What do you have to lose other than a whole lot of stress and worry?
