    Ep. #68 Nervous System Regulation Explained: How to Reduce Burnout, Stress, and Survival Mode

    In this episode of Breaking Up With Burnout, Tiffany Leader breaks down what nervous system regulation really means—beyond the buzzword. She explores the science of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, why regulation is about flexibility (not constant calm), and how burnout and trauma can leave us stuck in survival mode. Tiffany shares real-life examples, body-based signs of stress, and practical, seasonal tools she uses personally and with clients—like breathwork, EFT tapping, co-regulation, and sensory support. This episode is an invitation to get curious about your own nervous system, normalize rest (especially in winter), and build a more compassionate relationship with stress on the path to breaking up with burnout. Topics covered: * Fight/flight vs. rest/digest * Burnout, stress, and nervous system “stuckness” * Body cues of dysregulation and calm * Practical regulation tools & co-regulation * Why small moments of support matter ✨ Take a breath, settle in, and explore what regulation looks like for you.
