15. When You Just Don't Feel Like It

Everyone has those days - when you just don't feel like it!! You may lack the energy, motivation, interest, or desire to carry on. In this episode, I share 7 tips and tools that I've found helpful when you just aren't feeling it!

The reality is, it is quite perfectly normal to feel this way occasionally. It may be stress, overload, or burnout. "Burnout is what happens when you try to avoid being human for too long." - Sam Keen

Self-compassion involves not only being kind to yourself but understanding that being a human is messy. We experience it all - the good, bad, and the ugly!!

A poem I share on the episode that I love by Helen Mallicoat:

I was regretting the past,

and fearing the future…

Suddenly my Lord was speaking;

“My name is I Am.” He paused.

I waited. He continued,

“When you live in the past,

with its mistakes and regrets,

It is hard. I am not there.

My name is not I WAS.”

“When you live in the future,

with its problems and fears,

It is hard. I am not there.

My name is not I WILL BE.”

“When you live in this moment,

it is not hard.

I am here.

My name is I AM.”
