  • Freeze mode: When your nervous system -esta atorado!!
    Jan 22 2025

    I am calling all "so called" drama queens, sensitive peeps, llorones and exagerated people.!!!!! This episode is for you.
    When life feels chaotic and everything seems out of control, it’s easy to find ourselves falling into a state of freeze or shutdown. Lo estas sintiendo?
    This is a natural survival response of our nervous system, designed to protect us when we feel unsafe or overwhelmed. It’s not a weakness—it’s biology!!

    On this episode I will cover some of the ways to support nervous system flexibility.

    🌿 Ground Yourself in the Present
    Engage your senses to reconnect with your body and the moment. Try deep breathing, holding something textured, or focusing on what you can see, hear, and feel around you.

    🏃‍♀️ Move Your Body
    Physical movement, even gentle stretches or a short walk, can help signal your nervous system that it’s safe to shift out of freeze.

    🌀 Practice Self-Compassion
    Acknowledge your feelings without judgment. Remind yourself that it’s okay to pause and that these responses are part of your body’s design to protect you.

    🌞 Expand Your Window of Tolerance
    Regular practices like mindfulness, yoga, or vagus nerve exercises can strengthen your nervous system over time, making it easier to navigate moments of stress.

    💌 Reach Out for Support
    Connection is a powerful regulator. Sharing with a trusted friend, therapist, or loved one can provide grounding and perspective.

    Remember, creating a flexible nervous system takes time and practice. Be patient with yourself as you navigate the flow of life’s challenges. You’re building the capacity to move through moments of overwhelm with greater ease and grace. 🌟
