Your Thoughts are Draining Your Life Force

What if the reason you don’t have enough energy to change your life isn’t everything you’re doing, but everything you’re THINKING? Your capacity is finite. Every demand you face, every decision you make, every emotion you carry, and every change you want to create draws from the same internal account. Yet many of us are unknowingly spending huge amounts of that capacity on anxiety, overthinking, circling, catastrophizing, self-criticism, and trying to mentally control things we cannot control. Anxiety can feel productive because your brain believes it is solving, preparing, or protecting you. Often, though, it’s more like driving down the highway with your wallet open and your capacity dollars flying out the window. You spend and spend without getting anywhere. In this video, I’ll show you how anxious thoughts drain your nervous system and steal the resources you need for change, relationships, health, meaningful work, and the life you keep saying you want. I’ll also teach you a shortened version of the four-step process I use to interrupt anxiety loops, return to the body, and begin reclaiming that capacity. If you’ve spent years wondering why you know what you want to change but still can’t seem to follow through, this may help you understand the problem very differently. I teach this process in much greater depth in Chapter 8 of You’re Not the Problem, along with workbook exercises that help you identify your own anxiety patterns and begin changing them.
