I am exhausted but wired and cannot switch off, how do I meditate?
That tired-but-wired feeling is a nervous system stuck in high alert, and it is one of the clearest signs of burnout. Forceful focus can make it worse, so choose slow, body-based practices instead, long exhales, gentle body scans, and a soft guiding voice that signals safety to your body. The aim is to release, not to concentrate hard. StillMind’s wind-down practices are designed for exactly this state, easing you out of overdrive without demanding effort you do not have.
