Are you experiencing the…
A Life Traffic Jam?
It may not be “just stress.”
It may not be “just life.”
It might be a full-blown traffic jam, where everything shows up at once, and your system doesn’t get a break.
Picture your life like a freeway that used to run pretty smoothly.
It was busy, sure, but things moved. You handled what came your way, adjusted when you needed to, and kept everyone going. And then… it’s not a freeway anymore.
It’s bumper-to-bumper traffic.
Each car in the traffic jam may represent something you’re carrying, and it adds up fast.
One car might be your sleep, maybe you’re tossing and turning, waking up at 3am, or feeling exhausted no matter how long you’re in bed.
Another might be stress, riding close behind you with its high beams on.
One lane may be parenting, little kids who need you constantly, teens who need you emotionally, or young adults launching into the world.
Another may be work, where expectations don’t slow down even when your capacity does.
And in the middle of it all is the invisible car most people never see: the mental load. The planning, remembering, worrying, smoothing things over, being the strong one for everyone.
And sometimes, on top of all of that, your hormones may be getting wacky too, making everything feel even more intense, unpredictable, or harder to recover from.
When all of this stacks up, your nervous system can start living on high alert, and ANXIETY can show up in your body as a pounding heart, tight chest, feeling on edge, or getting irritated more easily than you used to.
