How to Heal Your Nervous System Impacted by Your Parents' Divorce | Sr. Mary Stephen
Description
Growing up with divorced parents or a dysfunctional family does not just shape your childhood. It shapes your nervous system. Many young people from broken homes live with chronic anxiety, shutdown, emotional overwhelm, or conflict avoidance without ever knowing why.
In this episode, Sr. Mary Stephen explains how childhood chaos trains your brain and body to stay on high alert and how to finally regulate your emotions instead of feeling controlled by them. You will learn simple, practical tools to calm your nervous system, process stored trauma, build internal safety, and integrate all of this with your spiritual life.
In this episode:
- Why your body still reacts like your parents are fighting
- How trauma gets stored in the nervous system
- Fight, flight, freeze, and shutdown explained
- Why talk therapy is not enough for many children of divorce
- Somatic exercises you can start using today

If you’re tired of feeling anxious, reactive, or stuck because of your family’s dysfunction, this episode is for you.
