265 - 3 Body-Based Tools To Calm Yourself Down When You're Triggered

The Calm Mom - Burnout, Anxiety, Nervous System, Mindset, Self-Care, Parenting, Work-Life Balance

Think back to the last time you felt triggered - whether it was an eye roll from your kiddo, a rude comment from a neighbor, or being stuck in rush-hour traffic - being triggered activates our nervous system’s fight, flight, or freeze responses. 

But here’s the catch, when we’re triggered, we can’t just tell ourselves to calm down. We have to communicate safety in a way our nervous system understands.

In today’s episode, you’ll learn effective body-based tools to help communicate safety to your nervous system and bring yourself back into a state of balance. 

Learn how these practices can help discharge stress hormones, enhance sensory awareness, and promote emotional regulation.
