When Everything Feels Far Away

For the times you feel flat, foggy, or oddly distant from your own life.

Purpose: For the times you feel flat, foggy, or oddly distant from your own life.

When to use: Use this on a day you feel numb, or like you are watching yourself from outside.

Worksheet prompts

  1. How connected do you feel to what is going on around you today?
  2. What does it look like for you?
  3. What has pulled you back before, even a little?
    Cold, movement, a voice, a smell, a small task.
  4. Who could you send a short message to today, even just a hello?

Numb is not the same as broken. It usually lifts, even when it takes its time.
