Description
Do you find yourself always “on” ? On edge no matter what, staying busy, and never able to catch a breath? The to-do list never ends, and if it’s not work, it’s back-to-back social plans that never seem to calm down. From the outside, it looks like strength and ‘powering through’, like you’ve got it all under control. But inside, it often hides the quiet toll of anxiety: tension, exhaustion, and a nervous system that never fully switches off.
Always On is a self-guided digital resource created by Dr. Pauline Chiarizia, Counselling Psychologist, to help high-achieving, busy minds understand and manage anxiety in practical, everyday ways. Each module comes with short videos and reflection prompts to build awareness of the patterns keeping you stuck and a dedicated section of practical, evidence-based strategies you can integrate into your day.
This guide will help you:
Recognise where anxiety shows up in your work and life
Understand why cycles of busyness, control, and perfectionism repeat themselves
Learn small practices that slow down your system and prevent burnout
Build awareness of your own agency so you respond differently when stress rises
This isn’t about quick fixes. It’s about understanding your patterns and creating space for a calmer, more sustainable way of living.
