I went too far – Finding balance in uncertainty with self-massage and meditation

I recently pushed myself too hard, when suddenly I hit a wall. I didn’t recognize my body’s cues to slow down until I was at the verge of collapse. Living through this pandemic, I feel that a lot of us are “overdoing it” in some fashion, as if in an effort to regain some level of control over our lives in a world that is troubling and uncertain. Let’s slow down, take a step back, and see how we can balance our busy, stressful lives with rest and restoration – before our bodies shut down.
