If you don’t read any others, that’s fine, but this one will help you with all the other areas because it’s more of a tool than a concept or abstract idea.

Ranting About Overwhelm and Societal Exhaustion
Today I'm ranting about how overwhelm and exhaustion are a given in our society right now.

Journal Entry on Rising Anxiety
I think right now I just don’t feel grounded at all. Like my foundations are tectonic plates shifting. It’ll either cause mountains of beauty ... or an erupting volcano or a straight up earthquake.
