August starts to feel like the Sunday of summer, and we can sense the back-to-school dread creeping in long before we step into the building. We break down why counting down doesn’t protect us and practice a tiny shift that brings our attention back to the life right in front of us.
• how anticipatory dread “taxes you twice” and fails as preparation
• the hidden habit of mentally clocking in early and bringing school worries home
• choosing the feeling we want to cultivate, like calm, ease, freedom, or joy
• three questions that reveal when the countdown shows up and what it costs
• a micro shift to notice the thought and gently return to the present moment
