Overcoming Overwhelm

Overcoming Overwhelm Look in any thesaurus, and the synonyms for overwhelm are pretty awful: overpower, subdue, oppress, quash, engulf, swallow, submerge, bury, suffocate.

Yet, to anyone who’s experienced overwhelm, and that’s plenty of us, those words may be all too familiar.

Spring Letting Go Process

I’ve been doing a “letting go” process. It’s based on a Feng Shui practice of letting go of 27 items for 9 days. The premise of this practice is when you declutter and let go of “things” on a conscious level, you are getting rid of not only the “stuff” but the energetic weight of all that “stuff” that’s been hanging out in your space. I immediately felt good and lighter upon embarking on this process. I had old magazines, books, papers, cards, linens and knickknacks, among other things, that were long overdue for a…
