COMMENT “RESTORE” below for my FREE Healing Our Cells visualisation.
Most of us rush through life on autopilot — eating quickly, doing chores at speed, powering through the day like life’s a race.
But here’s the thing:
Your nervous system doesn’t just respond to big life events. It takes cues from the pace of your everyday life. The rushing, the noise, the constant “go, go, go” can keep your body in fight-or-flight mode without you even realising it.
What if you started to slow it all down?
• Take your time in the shower
• Wash your hair more slowly
• Brush your teeth without rushing
• Walk through the house at a calmer pace
• Tidy up gently instead of frantically
• Even in the car — if you notice yourself clenching and speeding, try softening and slowing down
Each time you slow your movements, you tell your nervous system: “We’re safe. You can relax.”
This is what we call micro-regulation: small daily actions that bring your body back into its window of tolerance so life stops feeling like an emergency.
The more you build these regulating pauses into your day, the more your nervous system learns it doesn’t have to stay on high alert. Over time, this rewires your stress response in the most powerful way.
