Summer! A lot of a lot! How I’m restoring stability to my nervous system through this fast, intense season

Practical tools & personal anecdotes for how I'm navigating & supporting myself through the remainder of Summer

In this episode I share a bit about what I’ve been feeling through Summer… suffice it to say, ugh, “trampled?” “run down?” “shot?” BUT ALSO… soooo soo full from all the goodness, community, sunshine & general loveliness of Summer things.

But the pace has been intense.

Life heats up (literally & metaphorically!) through Summer, and it’s sometimes tricky to find our footing and cool it when we also want to make the most of this sweet short season.

In this episode you’ll find some practical somatic forms of support that have been helping to stabilize my nervous system, bringing me back into presence after feeling swept up by life for the last few weeks!

We also talk more in depth about the way the nervous system functions and how we can begin to work WITH our bodies when we become overwhelmed rather that trying to fight or “fix” ourselves.

My hope is that if Summer has been feeling like A LOT of a lot for you too, that this episode will support you to feel seen, soften any shame you might be holding around overdoing it (or feeling like you can’t keep up), and leave you with some tools to begin transforming that overwhelm into presence so that you may really soak up Summer’s goodness through the rest of this season!
