Taking a shower feels like climbing Everest? Answering an email feels like emotional warfare? 🏔️
You aren't broken—you are deconditioned.
In this video, I explain why "bed rotting" is actually a safety behavior that creates an "Anxiety Soup." You are feeding your brain high dopamine (screens) with low physical output. Your brain is running a marathon while your body is paralyzed.
The world isn't too hard; you've just stopped lifting the "life weights." It’s time to relearn the difference between being unsafe and just being uncomfortable.
