Description

Feeling overwhelmed is not a sign of weakness or over-sensitivity. It’s your body trying to protect you. 

In this episode, I guide you through three easy somatic exercises for overwhelm. Each one helps you regulate your nervous system and feel safe again. You’ll come home to your body and the support beneath you, so you can feel clearer and stronger.

You can use this episode when:
 • You feel overwhelmed or flooded
 • You’re stressed, anxious, or overloaded
 • You’ve been holding everything together for too long
 • You need a moment to feel comforted and connected again
