When it’s Hard to be Still – Do This Instead

It’s virtually impossible to go from a hyper-aroused state, feeling overwhelmed and anxious to being completely still, yet many of us are trying to do just that…

Stillness can be a wonderful goal, however, when trying to go from 100 to 0 with the flip of a switch doesn’t work for you, it doesn’t mean you’re “not doing something right.” It means you’re a sensitive person who’s maybe on overdrive and needs a different tactic.

For sensitive, deep-feeling folks, building resilience by focusing on cultivating a flexible nervous system is key.

Let the journey from anxiety to stillness be a rhythmic dance, and not an all-or-nothing thing. Allow for a sense of deceleration, rather than seeking to come to a screeching a halt.

As I am always inviting us to do, look to nature’s rhythms for guidance. We don’t go from summer to winter – autumn is in the middle, the deceleration. Going from hyper-aroused to stillness requires your own autumn.

Join me to discuss the hows and whys of this process.

The InnerSpark Method

Timeless Wisdom to become Naturally Resilient

Transform life's storms and cultivate peace, resilience, and vitality with Nature's wisdom.

Dive deep into nature’s rhythms, unraveling from the complexities and strains of modern life, and align yourself with the ebb and flow that has sustained life for millennia.
