Overwhelm: Understanding Its Essence
Overwhelm is defined as the moment where individuals believe they must disrupt their flow to address external challenges, leading to anxiety and fear. In contrast, being in flow entails focused, relaxed movement towards goals without undue stress. The initial shift into overwhelm often links to feeling the need to manage realities, resulting in a loss of flow and heightened fear within the system.
