235: A Trick for Overstimulation (Bite Size Nugget)
Description
Hey friends! In this bite-sized nugget, I’m following up on our convo about phones and overstimulation—because this one really can’t be said enough. Today we’re talking about how your phone use (yes, even for “productive” stuff like emails and scheduling) is hijacking your nervous system and keeping you stuck in a hypervigilant, crouching-tiger state. I’m breaking down how your vision, your body, and your mental load all take a hit—and sharing a few simple, science-backed tricks to help calm your system on the spot. Spoiler: you don’t have to delete Instagram or throw your phone in a lake. But you do need to take your power back. Let’s go.
