0212 [LIFE] What to do when youre stretched too thin

Published: Jan. 20, 2021, noon

If you\u2019re feeling overwhelmed, resentful, exhausted, or stretched too thin, it could be a sign that you\u2019re\xa0overfunctioning.\xa0\xa0

Overfunctioning\xa0is when we take on more than our fair share of responsibility inside of the context of the\xa0system\xa0we\u2019re in. Whether it\u2019s our family system, our work system, or another context. When we\xa0overfunction, we take on the burden of responsibility that others could shoulder.\xa0 \xa0

And we suffer because of it.\xa0

Today, we\u2019re diving deep into where\xa0overfunctioning\xa0comes from. (HINT: It\u2019s\xa0actually a\xa0natural, normal, typically helpful mental process gone awry!). We talk about how to recognize it, what the implications of it are, and most importantly, how to begin to make a shift into greater balance and ease.\xa0
