#083 - Forget self-care, do these things for your nervous system first
Description
Does it infuriate you when people talk about self-care and it feels totally out of your reach?
You are stressed, your kids are fighting and some expert is telling you to take a bath??
Before we can even think about self-care, we need to do this first...
And that is checking in with our nervous systems, noticing whether we are in fight, flight or freeze and then finding ways to bring ourselves back into balance.
I talk about small habits we can weave into our everyday lives to slow down, notice and soothe our nervous systems.
Once we do that, we can think well again. We can feel more calm. We can feel more in control of what is going on around us. And then we can start to think about how to get our needs met.
