Can take over your life.
Hyper-vigilance means you’re on most of the time-which actually slows you down.
THE WHAT
Hyper-vigilance is a state of constant alertness to be and do that overrules our mind, leaving us exhausted and empty.
- Constantly checking emails, to-do lists, and the phone.
- Overconsumption of social media to stay in the know.
- Over-planning to make sure nothing falls through.
- Over-committing or saying yes to things so we are not left out.
It looks like:
- Did I do enough?
- Did I solve all the problems for others?
- Did I not let anything fall through the cracks?
It amounts to I am not good enough; I need to keep going, striving, pushing…TO BE ENOUGH.
BREAK OUT OF IT
Slow down to speed up with intent.
Take control back over your day.
- The non-negotiables. Start it with a 30-minute morning ritual and end it with the 15-minute nightcap ritual that only for you.
- Schedule an “Over-Thinking Session.” 20 minutes daily to write, explore, and let your mind be in that clutter.
- TImeblock-Structure your day to eliminate the noise. Timeblocks should be at least 90-minute time sessions to focus.
