Feeling like you’ve lost your spark is more common than you think, but wanting to care again is the first step toward healing. This pin explores the transition from “shutdown” to “activation” using gentle, science-backed strategies to help you bridge the gap between numbness and passion. Instead of waiting for a “big spark,” we’re focusing on micro-actions that signal safety to your nervous system. Learn how to lower your threshold for meaning, address emotional backlogs, and move from passive consumption to active contribution. 🌿
Micro-Preferences: Practice the “this or that” game to rebuild your decision-making muscle.
