How do you cope with an overwhelmed nervous system? For me, I learned how to cope by eating, and eating, and eating. I really didn't understand the connection between my eating habits and an overwhelmed nervous system for a long time, so I'm hoping this episode will help you make that connection!
The thing is, most of us deal with high levels of daily stress, so does it seem some folks aren't even bothered, while the rest of us feel like our nervous system's been hijacked?
The good news is there are many tools and practices that we can use help to regulate our NS and get it back to my personal favorite mode: grounded and thriving!
While it took me a while to figure it out, it IS possible to avoid using food (or booze) to cope with our emotions and stress. If your nervous system feels like it's constantly getting hijacked and you're in a state of distress that leads you to overeat or use food to cope…then you're going to love this episode!
I dive into:
- The 3 most important steps (that work every time) to get you out of that overwhelmed state
- Important strategies to recognize when your nervous system is overwhelmed - before, during, and after it happens.
- How to regulate the nervous system and expand your window of tolerance.
- Techniques and practices to help bring it back into a state of calm and balance.
- How these practices can help you break free from emotional eating and develop a healthier relationship with food.
