Resource Yourself ✨ Your body isn’t broken.
Before we can release activation living in the body, we need somewhere safe to land. 🦋
During the month of September, I’ll be posting about, how-to, and why resourcing is vital to our health + well being!
Spoiler alert! It’s about regulating your nervous system, but more specifically building capacity + adaptability.
But first …
What is activation? ➡️ increased arousal of our nervous system connected to its (not yours) PERCEPTION that something is threatening, but this is not “just stressed” it’s the BODY’S HELD RESPONSE.
This could feel like …
- - - - - bracing in the belly
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - quickened pulse when you think about something difficult
- - - - - - - - constriction or tightness
- - - - - - - - - - - tense jaw or rigid shoulders
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - buzzing or “pins-and-needles”
- - - - - - - - - - - - - sudden wave of internal heat or cold
- - - - - - “butterflies”
- - - - - - - - - - - sluggishness or heaviness
- - - - - - - - - feeling frozen or numb
- - - - - - - - shallow or rapid breath
Hands in the air if you’ve ever felt any of those!!! 🤚 Definitely me!
Here’s the kicker!
By the time you’re consciously aware of feeling “it,” your lovely nervous system has already shifted states.
Stay tuned for more brain food 🧠 for nourished wisdom!
