Everything that SHE said! 👇
‼️Caring for Your Nervous System‼️
When stress stays high for too long, the nervous system can get stuck in survival mode. Over time, that can show up as irritability, sleep disruption, low mood, or feeling on edge. Consistently supporting your nervous system is key for nurturing a steady baseline for mood, focus, and emotional regulation.
🤍When we look at connection and relationships, reducing reactivity, defensiveness, and shutdown behavior can strengthen communication and trust over time.
✨Pilates is a nervous system supportive practice.
It is intentional movement that emphasizes breath, control, and awareness, which builds strength and increases nervous system regulation.
Pilates is just one example. It's important to choose something that works best for you. Whole body care looks different for everyone.
‼️Helpful Reminder: Caring for your nervous system is not about getting it all right. It is about choosing practices that fit your life, and that can change over time.
