238. How to De-Stress: Relaxation Intervention for Amanda (and You)!
About this episode
Abby and Glennon attempt a Relaxation Intervention, which Amanda sabotages – resulting in a riveting discussion of why we can’t (don’t) de-stress, and how relaxation can help us ALL feel a little more human:
Why so many of us have lost our playful, silly, absurd selves – and how we might recover them;
The “Relaxation Homework” Abby assigned to Amanda;
How over-functioners can channel their superpower into being fully alive;
Why it’s not our job to ensure things won’t fall apart, but to accept that they absolutely will;
And the one “tracking” tool Amanda will use to find more moments of connection.
