Looking After Your Wellbeing While The World Is Feeling Heavy
Managing and prioritising our own wellbeing whilst already feeling overwhelmed and at capacity can be a tough one to manage alongside our general day to day stresses. Add in the current weight of the world on our shoulders which is unbearably heavy for many people right now, and it can feel an almost impossible task.
With our own personal wellbeing ultimately being OUR responsibility and no one else’s, it’s up to us to put boundaries in place so we don’t feel overwhelmed with world crises, political events, and various breaking news stories that are designed for maximum shock impact. Having found myself swept up in some of this recently, I’ve seen how easy these scroll holes can be to fall in to. And then when you’ve finally pulled yourself away from doomscrolling, you’re left with a heavy feeling of helplessness, overwhelm and impending doom.
I talk a bit about stealing snippets of time from your current busy routine in order to build a better future, and how I manage to feel accomplished and that I’m working towards something positive, whilst also acknowledging life doesn’t feel great right now. It can feel like psychological warfare at times, and our personal resilience to this is something we all need to build up and reinforce, as I doubt this global situation is going to suddenly go away any time soon.
