Stop spinning your wheels

Do you keep Spinning your wheels like it's part of your fitness routine?

Having the same conversation 15 times in your own head?

Repeating what you want to say to someone over and over in your head because you can't let the words out of your mouth? Shhhh.

I call this looping and in addition to triggering anxiety, it can trigger a cortisol release, which means stress.

Spinning your wheels just exhausts you and you get nowhere.

When it happens, you can rescue yourself. Best thing that helps me with this is singing - or having an unrelated conversation with someone - essentially 'drowing out' the loop. Sometimes that's enough to snap me out of it, sometimes i just need to nap. Naps are the ultimate reset and very good for reducing stress.

About the Author

Dawn Super is an empowerment coach, speaker, and writer who helps people thrive — not someday, but right now, exactly as they are. She knows firsthand what it’s like to live with lifelong health challenges, including narcolepsy, and has made it her mission to teach others how to show up for themselves with compassion, courage, and a little bit of humor and sass.
Known for her “mindset magic strategies,” Dawn brings a blend of practical tools, soulful insight, and real-talk encouragement to anyone ready to stop waiting for permission to love themselves. Her work speaks especially to those who’ve felt left out, misunderstood, or stuck on the sidelines — the misfits, the dreamers, the rebels, and the overcomers.
When she’s not coaching, creating, or writing, you might find her meditating at the beach, virtually socializing, or laughing (probably at one of her own jokes). Dawn believes that self-love isn’t just a buzzword — it’s a radical act of rebellion in a world that profits from your doubt.
