Imagine not having to “plan” to make time for anything ever again…
And failing..
Because babe, the truth is… “not having enough hours in a day” or “feeling like you’re running out of time” isn’t real. It’s urgency. A trauma response.
Being more productive won’t give you more time, coming back to a centered and anchored nervous system will.
And that requires knowing what nervous system response you’re in.
Depending on what you’re in, you may need to up-regulate or down-regulate.
Different approaches, for different people.
This is where you come in.
Are you running away from time, aka avoiding all the things you “have to” do? Flight.
Are you fighting time, aka doing every single task on your to-do list like you’re in danger? Fight.
Are you paralyzed, and can’t get anything done? Freeze.
Are you just disconnected, going with the flow, never getting anywhere and wondering “how did I get HERE?” Fawn.
Our nervous system acts like a “fail-safe” for staying alive.
However, sometimes it fails…when it’s chronic.
When we get used to it.
When we never down-or up-regulate.
Coming back to a regulated state isn’t a one-size fits all, it’s you taking ownership over your experience and noticing.
If you need to down-regulate…I would recommend you do some of our faster formats, like SMWYP or JUMP.
Why? You’re high-strong. You need to sweat out the cortisol, get wildly present, and not have so much time for your mind to race.
Counter-intuitive? Everyone tells you, “you need yoga!” because your mind is racing every night and you cannot sleep.
You probably don’t need a quiet yoga class. You won’t stick with it. It’ll trigger your nervous system more. And eventually, you’ll say “I just fell off” but it was your body, protecting you from peace…because it’s not a familiar nervous system state.
The only way out is through.
We keep this wisdom within everything we do.
