Clear the Noise

Overstimulated. Overthinking. Overwhelmed. I was over this day too. Matter of fact, I’m over feeling this way at all. And shutdown then happens in 3… 2… 1. Scrolling commences. Snacks abound. Do not ask me any further questions because my brain is not computing anything further. 



If you or anyone you know chooses the freeze option to react you know how unproductive this can be. Now the tasks are stacking and the next shutdown is viable to happen at any moment. I needed to make some type of change but I really didn’t know what. 



“Clearing out the noise in your life is therapeutic. ”

I’m the girl who goes on a rampage to clean out her closet when I get overwhelmed. The clear space in the physical somehow helps my brain get clear. But something else was overstimulating me. I couldn’t think properly because I had no clear opinion of my own. The email was stacked. My IG timeline was flooded. This person got a masterclass, that person got a workshop and I don’t even know which ones are legit because half of them honestly aren’t worth my time. 



So I cleaned out my email. 

I unfollowed over-opinionated people even when I agreed with them.

I unplugged from negative news sources.

I got quiet within myself. 



Clearing out the noise in your life is therapeutic. Especially if you are overstimulated easily, stick to a minimum until you can add things on. This process of clearing out the noise in my life gave me what I didn’t expect:

1 Helped me gain my voice.

2 I gained a better sense of direction for my life. 

3 I could finally deal with what was under the clutter.

This was so eye-opening because we tend to lose sight of who we are because we are bombarded with everyone else’s thoughts. This is what I miss from the pandemic. The ability to get quiet with yourself. But we can still make this a thing for ourselves and our sanity if we are intentional about it. Get quiet. Pause. Check in with yourself. The life you live out loud begins internally. Straighten that out and the rest will flow from there.
