Caring for others is meaningful — and it can also be deeply exhausting.

Compassion fatigue isn’t a failure or a lack of care. It’s what can happen when you’ve been holding space for others for a long time without enough support for yourself.

If this resonates, you’re not alone.

You deserve rest, boundaries, and care too. 💛

When anxiety starts to get loud, it tends to narrow our sights and we can hyper-focus on specific thoughts.

Playing the "What if" game can create mindfulness, widen our sights, and add a little perspective!

It's not always an easy game to play, but with practice it gets easier!

Anxiety can be exhausting!

Did you know that the experience of anxiety doesn't end the moment we start to feel better... it's side effects and sensations can instead start to add up and have longer term impacts!

As a result, it's really important to practice down-regulating activities to help shift our sympathetic nervous system state to a parasympathetic nervous system state. This is were we feel safe, calm, connected, and grounded.

Reminder: making changes takes time, and new practices can feel uncomfortable and scary! It makes sense that this is hard to do, so hopefully we can encourage you to have kindness and compassion towards yourself (and others) as you work through anxiety.
