When we think about stress we often blame ourselves and our lack of ability to handle it as well as we used to or as well as we *should* or as we perceive someone else, and often disregard the factors that have us stressed, overwhelmed, in the first place.

There are both external and internal factors to your stress.

Which one can you manage and guide?

The internal... but what you'll see is when you learn to pause and choose how you want to navigate the internal stress, what you pay attention to in the external space changes.

Being stressed, overwhelmed, anxious, and depressed in the face of the chaos we live in is an appropriate response from your system trying to cope and make sense of things.

So what can you do to help navigate it all?

Today we're talking about more love, more of you, and less stress.

When we fraction ourselves off and deny parts of ourselves this leads to stress on our system. when we are not allowing all of ourselves to exist that is a threat to who we are.

The solution as I see it is allowing more of yourself to exist, more of what lights you up, more love, more of your light and your passions, the world needs you.

We can not give what we do not have, that includes love, compassion, gratitude, space, energy, attention... all of these things we have to give ourselves in order to have any to give others.

This episode we're talking about creating routines morning or otherwise that serve you.

There is no roadmap to this life and what serves someone else can only serve as a guide for you to create your own routine. There is no paint by numbers or formula to success, happiness, fulfillment or any of the other things we look to create our  best life with.

Our routines must serve us, and to do so we have to be intentional about creating them and aware of what they are. Your brain is always looking to optimize and it will create routines out of what you do the most frequently... so pay attention!

This episode revisits my definition of resilience - To return to an original state 

As humans our original state of balance in your nervous system, which gives you the capacity for curiosity, joy, pleasure, empathy, compassion, trust in yourself and others.

What it is not: a way to keep going in the same manner and pretending that shit is not burning down around you. 

It is not a hack to be more productive

It is not for promoting any kind of ideas that you need to just pick yourself and dust yourself off and keep going. 

That’s an idea that I heard so much of growing up but it’s missing the whole piece of addressing the thing that inspires the need for resilience in the first place. 

It is not a way to measure yourself against others and compare levels of resilience (because you have no idea what they have going on outside of the story you’re making up that benefits your worldview)

This episode is inspired by a couple of you out there who listen and work with me. I was called out on my shit for not taking my own advice.

In this episode you'll hear that:

Number one: no one has it all figured out, and if someone tries to tell you they do... run the other way! We're all just out here trying to figure it out, even when we know the things to help us navigate, and help others, we're still just trying to figure out each day.

Number two: the thing I will continue to remind you of... There is nothing wrong with you. The stress, anxiety, the uncertainty you face and all of the feels that make up these experiences and the ways you choose to cope are all human things and you're not alone.

That's my take home message, get in there and give it a listen for more!

This week's episode was inspired by a couple of shit days I've had recently, I was sitting in my pity pool and having a whole time resisting what was actually happening because it's not what I wanted right then... I know I'm not alone here.   

When we let Inconvenience in our days derail us we can absolutely get back on track, and I don't mean any track that we *should be on, but the track that we're building for how we actually want to be feeling and navigating through the days.

Acceptance and choice are two of the most powerful tools we hav for navigating our days with intention and creating the experience we do want.

Today we're talking about everyone's favorite topic: procrastination and how it causes you stress and anxiety and overwhelm.

No, I'm not here to give you the best productivity hacks to conquer your procrastination... I'm here to share the reasons you procrastinate in the first place.

There's nothing wrong with you, procrastination isn't a motivation or organizational problem to be solved, it's a tool you use to cope with the feelings you don't know how to address... so we need to build tools that serve us better.

As always, awareness, intention, and self-compassion are the magic ingredients here.

Immediately after recording last weeks episode I had more thoughts on the death of the diagnosis. 

I still stand firm that my opinion aligns with a growing base of psychologists and researchers who see the diagnosis as an antiquated tools that isn’t as useful as we once believed it to be and it may even be detrimental in the way that it continues to stigmatize and further perpetuate the idea that some people have mental disorder or illness and others are “normal”

I will say this again, If you’re human and you’re alive you have had mental disorder… what is that?

It is a lack of order or balance in your cognitive processes and/or dysregulation of your nervous system function which is another way to say the same thing and include all parts of the nervous system rather than just the central nervous system which is your brain and spinal cord….

So, my personal experience with diagnosis goes like this...

Today we're talking about an article I read about diagnosis and the diagnostic criteria, right away I'll remind you I am not a clinician and this is not medical advice.

But I do have opinions about our healthcare system or rather the lack of.

I've got a lot of questions about diagnosis and in general the things we identify with and hold so tightly to.

How are these things serving you? Have you considered that before?

You are not your diagnosis, your trauma, or your past... unless you choose to identify with it and make it your identity.

These things absolutely inform how we navigate the world, the lens through which we view the world but what we do with that information and the actions we take now, in the present moment moving forward, this is what creates our life.
