When Work Breaks You

Have you ever worked in a place that slowly wore you down?Where your confidence shrank, your mood changed, and you stopped recognising yourself?

I have seen this for over 40 years in my work with people who felt drained, overwhelmed, or pushed beyond what any human nervous system can endure.

This is something I wish more people knew:

You are not weak.You are not failing.Your system is overloaded.

Toxic environments, constant pressure, unrealistic expectations and unkind behaviour all take a toll.They affect how you think, how you sleep, and how you feel about yourself.Many people do not speak about it because they think it is somehow their fault.

Here is a small reset you can use today if work has left you shaken or tense:

Place your hand gently on your chest.Breathe out slowly.Say one word with softness in your mind: Soften.

Your system will respond immediately.It brings you back into yourself.

If you want a simple tool that helps you calm down quickly and think more clearly, you can begin with Module 1 of my QuickShift system.It is gentle, fast, practical and designed for real life.

I created it for moments just like this.
