We make over 35,000 decisions every single day—from what to eat for breakfast to the big, life-shaping choices that impact our future. While many of these decisions seem small, they place a very real demand on the nervous system, often leading to overwhelm, stress, and fatigue. When our system becomes overloaded, we may feel scattered, irritable, or shut down altogether. The good news? By creating simple routines, reducing options, and practicing small grounding techniques, we can ease the load on our nervous system and approach decisions with more clarity, balance, and calm.
