Guilt and Energy

No, no, it’s the other way round. It’s absolutely very much the other way round. Feelings of guilt and anxiety are the biggest devourer of energy of all. You are low-energy because you “are already feeling guilty.”

The worst, most intolerable kind of guilt is parental guilt. And there is no parent in existence who couldn’t find five trillion reasons to feel guilty. You either give in to the guilt and it eats you alive or you don’t. If you are prone to feeling guilt, find out why and work on that. Then energy will start getting liberated and you’ll get to do a lot more than now.

    Ha! I was beginning to feel bad about being a low-energy mom. Then we moved to a different house. Turned out it was just the mold or whatever.

      People accept “low energy” like it’s an identity label when there’s usually a reason that can be addressed.

        I get it though: the causes are often difficult to pin down, harder to address, and while you’re doing those things, everybody thinks you’re a hypochondriac.

        Being tired all the time is a big health red flag! Don’t ignore it!

            Moving was all it took.
