Calming the nervous system…

Your nervous system will feel naturally calmer when you:

  • Spend more time with the right people
  • Allow yourself to rest without guilt
  • Make your body feel safe (tapping/affirmations)
  • Take some deep breaths (shallow breaths trick the nervous system that you’re in fight/flight)
  • Offer yourself compassion over judgment
  • Less staring at a screen (locked eyes trick the nervous system that you’re in a a stress response)
  • Lean into self-forgiveness
  • Laugh
  • Walk in nature
  • Accept your humanness 
— @h.e.l.e.n.m.a.r.i.e.

I’ve found a number of these techniques helpful, for sure. But for me, Craniosacral Therapy, Body Talk, and traditional therapy have been even better, because you can get to some root causes, and calm things down in a more permanent way. Just sayin’ ;) Hugs and good luck. XO
