Most people today assume their exhaustion, irritability, fogginess, and emotional overwhelm are personal shortcomings. They think they’re 'getting old', 'not coping', 'not disciplined', or 'not spiritual enough'. But the truth is far simpler — and far more compassionate: Your nervous system is overwhelmed.
