Emotional Regulation Before Tackling Your To Do List
What if I told you your to-do list isn’t actually the problem? The reason you feel overwhelmed, scattered, or unproductive has more to do with your inner thermostat than the number of tasks you’re trying to juggle.
In this episode, I talk about what it means to regulate our internal temperature so that we can approach our lists, our goals, and our daily life with a calm, steady mind. When we are overheated with anxiety or shut down from avoidance, no amount of planning or productivity tricks will help. What does help is learning how to notice when our inner thermostat is off and practicing ways to bring ourselves back to balance.
I share how to:
- Recognize whether you are running hot, cold, or steady
- Use awareness as the first step to interrupt spirals of overthinking or shutdown
- Practice quick resets to cool down or warm up your system before returning to your tasks
- Approach your to-do list with clarity by sorting priorities, pacing yourself, and checking in throughout the day
Productivity with peace of mind is not about doing more. It is about regulating our nervous system so that we can see clearly, choose wisely, and take meaningful action without burning out or checking out.
Take a listen and then ask yourself: what temperature are you at today, and what small step would bring you back to balance?
