Sometimes we're just stuck. It might look like scrolling on our phones, hitting the "next episode" button on Netflix, or even just staring out the window. 

What makes us "stuck" is not the activity itself; it's the fact that we want or need to move on but it feels impossible to do so.

What can we do to move out of that place of stuckness to one where we can choose what we do next? 

How can we get going when we feel like we're moving through quicksand?

Today we'll talk about using "transition activities" to gently move out of a frozen state and into one of mobility and productivity.  This is not about "trying harder", it's about learning how to work with your nervous system exactly where it is!
