Description

Feeling wired but tired, fragile, or checked out? This episode explains nervous system burnout and how to rewire it.

We cover the gatekeeper role of the nervous system, real-life signs of burnout, why common advice backfires, how to create a daily rewiring window (predictability, slowness, breath, orientation, HRV awareness), tools that actually help (NSDR/Yoga Nidra, weighted blankets, glycine/magnesium, morning light, L-theanine/taurine), what to avoid during repair, and where this work fits in the Compass model.
