Hitting a wall isn’t failure. It’s information.
If I Hit a Wall… is a simple, nervous-system-informed guide for the moments when motivation drops, overwhelm spikes, or your brain just… stops cooperating. Instead of forcing yourself through, this tool helps you slow down, support your body, and then choose what actually fits your capacity.
The flow is intentionally small and doable:
Pause – Stop the spiral and check what your body is asking for.
Regulate – Choose one quick grounding or sensory reset.
Re-Choose – Decide what comes next based on today’s capacity, not yesterday’s expectations.
This isn’t a productivity hack.
It’s a permission slip to work with your nervous system.
