Great post, Naush! You did so well by taking action and connecting to your emotions as soon as you felt overwhelmed.

Most of the time, we continue with our duties until they become too overwhelming for us to handle, leading to illness as our body and mind struggle to receive our attention.

Our health suffers when we ignore our inner voice, which urges us to pause and take a deep breath. After we recover, things will be waiting for us.

I believe that society's rhythm can also lead us off course, as everyone is so focused on productivity and efficiency that we often lose sight of our own rhythm.

The best way to regulate, aside from taking space and looking for support and silence, is to watch nature's natural rhythms and seasons.

Having a cat helps, as she sleeps and eats whenever she wants and that is always amusing for me and a great reminder to enjoy being.:))
