Two of my favorite and quick in the moment tools to give a mama stuck in endless rage cycles
Isometric release ➡️ Rage is stored in physical energy in the body and needs somewhere to go.
- place your hands against a wall
- push as hard as you can for 15-20 seconds
- release and then repeat until feeling more calm
✨Your ending the fight response and ending the danger signals your body is receiving allowing you to feel calm and safe.
Temperature Resets ➡️ your nervous system responds instantly to temperature changes.
- place your face in the freezer or cold water for 30-90 sec
- hold ice cubes in your hands and squeeze hard
- place a cold ice pack on your neck or chest
This activates your vagus nerve and pulls you out of fight/flight.
✨you can't stay in rage when your body is forced to physically reset.
Try these out when you begin to feel overloaded and rage sneaking up. Let me know how they work for you!
