What happens when being strong for too long begins to disconnect you from your own body?
In Week Two of the series When Being Strong Becomes Too Much, Theresa guides listeners through a gentle meditation focused on fatigue — not as weakness or failure, but as information the body has been trying to communicate.
This experience invites you to slow down, listen inward, and explore the deeper relationship between exhaustion, survival patterns, over-responsibility, and the pressure to keep pushing through.
Together, we explore:
• the emotional and physical experience of fatigue
• staying in relationship with the body instead of overriding it
• the inner voice that equates rest with weakness
• nervous system exhaustion and chronic alertness
• learning to meet yourself with understanding instead of force
Rather than trying to “fix” fatigue, this guided practice creates space to notice what your body may have been carrying for too long — gently, without judgment or urgency.
If you’ve been feeling emotionally tired, stretched thin, disconnected from yourself, or exhausted from constantly holding everything together, this meditation offers an opportunity to pause, breathe, and listen differently.
Find a quiet space, get comfortable, and allow yourself to settle into the experience.
