141. The MESS Framework: Know Your Capacity Before You Blow A Fuse

from Ending Body Burnout Show · host Chris & Filipa Bellette

In this week’s episode, Chris & Filly take you through the MESS framework - a foundational framework to help you identify your capacity and readiness to do the things you need to do to heal (and to live life), so you can build trust with self, understand your body’s wisdom, and sustainably move forward in your healing journey - vs over-doing it & blowing a fuse!   In today’s episode, Chris & Filly talk about: Health issues are often rapport issues—you've lost connection with your body's signals and capacity. The spoon theory explains why some days you're effortless and other days just getting up feels impossible. The M.E.S.S. Framework helps you check in daily: Mood, Energy, Sensations, Stress. How to use the M.E.S.S. assessment to build trust with self & to sustainably heal - to know what you need, to know when to “push”, to know when to pull back. Honouring your capacity (instead of overriding it) is how you actually build long-term healing and resilience.   Show Note Links:    Check out how you can work with us here    Take the Ending Body Burnout Assessment QUIZ here Disclaimer: This Ending Body Burnout Show podcast and any information, advice, opinions or statements within it do not constitute medical, health care or other professional advice, and are provided for general information purposes only.
