Many people blame themselves for not following through on goals.

But often the issue isn’t motivation.
It’s nervous system capacity.

When we live in chronic stress or overwhelm, even meaningful habits can feel difficult to sustain.

Real transformation starts with safety, regulation, and self-awareness — not more self-criticism.

I explore this more deeply in my newest Brainz Magazine article.

Well...this is frustrating! I am not able to send or receive texts this week due to a new phone service glitch.

There are still a few appointment openings though if you'd like to stop by for an adjustment or craniosacral session.

I am receiving phone calls and voice messages and email is working fine if you need to reach me.

I hope to have this resolved by the end of the week. In the meantime, if you are ready to schedule please use this link: https://tlcchirowellness.janeapp.com/

Or call and leave me a massage. I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

Thanks for your patience! 😊

Sometimes the rage and upset hit you like a freight train - and there just isn’t time to process or work it out. But, if you don’t get it out of your body you’re not going to be okay.

This is where a quick simple practice is what saves the day.

A combination of breath and movement can literally shift your nervous system system out of fight mode and into a calmer state.

This won’t solve the original issue or get rid of the underlying dysregulation, but it will allow you to function again and prevent a full blown panic.

P.s. if you’re already in panic this will take you back down.

Try this: exhale longer than you inhale for a few breaths, then stand up and start swinging your arms in and out with your breath. Then, shake it out. Breath.

You got this!

If you are feeling stressed or overwhelmed by all the change going on around you. If you are carrying too much weight or responsibility. Your nervous system is at max capacity. You cannot create new growth when you are tapped out.

This is why helpful processes that look like they should work, or do for others, don't work for you. A nervous system needs to feel safe, calm and regulated before it can allow new information to take root and become new pathways.

Clear out the old and create space first, then consider what you want to create and allow yourself to receive the energy to create it.

If this sounds overwhelming, I get it. I've been there - many times!

Feel free to reach out if this resonates.

Also, I have created a simple tool to assess your current capacity and recalibrate. It's called The Capacity Reset and you can find the link in the Bio.

I was on a retreat last weekend with an amazing group of women. We laughed, cried, supported and healed. I got to share my work and experience theirs. It was a dream come true.

It was something I have worked long and hard to achieve and it felt natural to be there. I belonged.

As I reflect back, I realize that the natural world around me was providing me support and feedback, not just the other participants. This is so often true though we forget to notice.

These guys really grabbed my attention. There were so many iguanas! They represent resilience, patience and adaptability. They symbolize thriving through change and challenge.

A perfect message! They are also a protector, bringer of abundance and ward off negativity. Just what I needed right now!

What natural guides are showing up in your life right now? What message do they have for you? Will you allow the natural world to show up for you?

Magic about to happen! Day one of the EmpowHERment retreat in Punta Cana. Already so many Aha! Moments and breakthroughs. Thankful for the women taking this journey and sharing it with me.

This week in on my weekly community call we talked about hidden energy drains. You know them well. Social media, frustrating co-workers, the news or even overheard conversations. Exhausting!
After a great discussion the reality that we are often moving so fast between tasks that we don’t get a chance to process, integrate or even decide authentically came up. How do we interrupt this pattern?
A simple, but not always easy exercise I shared can help.
Stop in between tasks and breathe for one minute. That’s it!
This simple practice can, over a few days time help your recalibrate so you feel less stress, fatigue and overwhelm. The nervous system takes its cues from the body. Stopping to breathe tells your brain you are calm and secure.
The trick is to remember to do it! Use a post it note or reminder on your phone. Have you used this exercise before? If not, give it a try and feel free to share how it goes.

This week’s posts focused on how we can sometimes feel “off” after a treatment or even a coaching session.

The appointment went well. We feel more relaxed…and then we realize, we don’t actually feel the same. It’s odd.

This isn’t theory. This is exactly what happened to me this week.

After a powerful healing session with one of my teachers a couple of weeks ago I’ve been releasing old patterns, consciously and unconsciously. I’m aware of it and have been allowing myself the time and space for new thoughts and ideas. Honestly though, it’s felt a little uncomfortable.

Last Friday I suddenly came down with what I thought would be a short cold. But, I got sicker and sicker. Fever, pain, coughing, shortness of breath. This went on for days.

I rarely get sick so this really got my attention. I moved though the week slowly, deliberately choosing to go at the pace that felt the most healing. It was a lot slower than I prefer!

Then, yesterday I had a realization. I have been shedding parts of an old identity that no longer serves me. And, it was necessary to burn away some of then conditioning that had gotten stuck in my body. I had a soar throat for days - I had often silenced my true voice.

As I come out of this week of illness I am still choosing to move slower than “normal.” And, I actually feel like a different version of myself than I was going into it.

I’m still tired and coughing a bit, but I am also clearer about what I want. I feel a shift in priorities and a return to some parts of myself that got lost somewhere along the way in the last ten years or so.

I know the healing practice has done me good, and my nervous system is recalibrating. My body is aligning with my heart and mind towards a new path. I trust that it will become clear.

This is how healing works. We get adjusted, we breathe and allow a practitioner to guide us. We ask questions and listen for answers. Then we allow the nervous system to find its way in the newly upgraded system.

It doesn’t always feel safe at first, but we have tools and guidance. We keep showing up. We do our best. And…we heal. The path becomes clear.

Have a wonderful holiday weekend if you are celebrating. Enjoy the Spring weather and trust your path.

Growth doesn’t always feel like relief right away.

As your nervous system begins to shift through care,
your body stops defaulting to the same patterns it used to rely on.

Even if those patterns were rooted in stress or tension…
they were familiar.

So when things start to feel different—
emotionally, physically, or mentally—
it can feel uncomfortable.

Not because something is wrong.
But because something is changing.
