Stopping and doing nothing

#7 on this list, but also in one of her books Brené writes about working in a restaurant and reaching her limit and how sometimes the best thing, the only thing you can do is let yourself completely stop and do nothing for a little bit. “Don’t just do something, stand there!” sometimes I feel like I have to do all of the coping mechanism / therapy homework things but that feeling can just add to the anxiety; sometimes it’s a major reset to just be like “my job is to literally do nothing for the next 15 min” and give yourself that permission and space. sorry you’re going through this, it can feel so impossibly hard but you’re not alone! ❤️
