People have been asking me, ‘What exactly is Overwhelm?’
Well, think of it like this… If some aspect of your life is lacking, causing you to lose sleep, or have thoughts circling around your head all day, you’re probably experiencing some form of Overwhelm.
You might be extremely successful in many areas of your life, but question the value of it when another part isn’t up to that standard.
Some people describe being too emotional, some not enough. Some know what they want but don’t know how to get there while others admit they wouldn’t recognise when they have reached their goal. Some people are filled with regret and seem stuck in the past while others are too busy planning for the future to enjoy today.
If any of this sounds familiar, it doesn’t mean you’re a failure, just in need of some assistance in getting the most out of ALL facets so that you can live a truly fulfilled life.
More flexibility.
If finding the time to deal with your overwhelming life has been difficult, I’m pleased to announce greater flexibility in getting an appointment to see me.
I can now offer appointments Monday, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays during the day and also Tuesday evenings. So don’t let a busy schedule stop you from looking after YOU, call now to find a convenient time.
What is information and what is marketing?
This month I thought we’d discuss the overwhelming amount of information we are bombarded with every day and try to decipher what it’s all about.
Think about the conflicting messages we are sent and let’s look at who is sending them. Think about how the messages change from one time to another- we all want to do what’s best for us and our family, but they keep changing the message!
I remember when my son Shaun was small, the recommendation was that from 6 months you should brush your child’s teeth with a small amount of toothpaste each day- fine, did that- What a good mother I am. BUT- a few years later when I had Natalie, they’d changed the recommendations and mothers were then told not to use toothpaste until the child was 2 years old! Had I done the wrong thing by Shaun, should I feel guilty that he’d had toothpaste? No, the information was out of date; we can simply do the best of our knowledge with the information at the time and use our own common sense.
Take for example, the dietary recommendations put forward.
We are told we should eat red meat several times per week. Who is sending this message? The Red Meat Corporation.
Who tells us to drink 3 serves of Dairy per day? The Dairy Corporation.
Then the one that really gets me at the moment is the ‘Anti-bacterial Sprays’ currently all over the media- do we really need them? No, most of the bacteria they kill are harmless anyway. It is marketing and the company want out make money out of you. They use the emotions of fear and guilt to ‘make you’ feel that you can’t live without their products.
Is this scientific data or marketing? It’s difficult to tell the difference sometimes.
What about all the other messages we are being told day after day? What can we do about it?
My advice is to get as balanced a view as possible- listen to both sides of any story and form your own opinion.
Early Bird Registration Extended!
I have decided to EXTEND the cut-off date for Early Bird Price for the “Who’s Really Number 1?” retreat day until October 14th due to the school holidays.

On the program is-
Yoga- to stretch and invigorate the body,

Looking for a Guest Speaker?
Overcoming Overwhelm Newsletter – September 2009
e-newsletter from Robyn Stitt, Overwhelm Consultant 0437 601 550
Do you like my photo?
I’ve decided to put a photo I have taken in each month’s newsletter, now that I’ve got my new camera. Photography is another of my passions. I’m not an expert, and would rather take photos of trees, old buildings and grains of sand than people, but we’re all different.
This month’s photo I took on a visit to Milang with my family.
I like how it shows the layers or levels that the water has been then smooth, even sand at the bottom. I think of this photo as symbolising what my treatments do- peel back the layers of your issue one by one until your energy is balanced or smooth.
What level are you at?
Would you like a talk on Overwhelm, Communication or General Wellness?
My diary is starting to have a few free spaces in it for talks again before Xmas.
If you, or some group you belong to, would like an evening of fun and learning, give me a call or email to discuss your needs. You’ll get to understand yourself better; look at things differently to how you might have always done; take home useful information to use and even the chance to WIN some free treatment for yourself or a family member or friend!
I can accommodate a day or evening option.
Phone 0437 601 550 for more details.
