Feeling Numb Around the People You Love?

Sometimes the scariest feeling isn’t sadness or anger. It’s *numbness.*

You're at the table, but not present. You’re hugging your kids, but your heart’s far away. You're checking the boxes—but feeling nothing inside.

This isn’t about failure. It’s about **overwhelm with no off switch.**

When you give everything to everyone, there’s often nothing left for connection.

🛠 Try this:

  1. **The Two-Minute Pause** – Once a day, pause and ask: “Who do I *miss* when I’m busy?”  Then send a short voice note or hug that person longer today.
  2. **Eye Contact Reset** – The next time you're with someone you care about, try 10 seconds of eye contact without speaking. Let presence replace pressure.
  3. **End-of-Day Check-In** – Ask yourself: “Did I connect or just complete today?”

The goal isn’t to force connection. It’s to create *space* for it.

With you,
Isabelle.

Happiness Iz… Being Kind to Your Own Mind.
