77. Are you really burned out? What your Nervous System is telling you.
In this episode, we dive deep into the connection between burnout and our nervous system responses. Learn about the different states our nervous system can be in, including the lesser-known "functional freeze," and discover practical techniques to regulate your nervous system and prevent burnout.
We explore how understanding our nervous system can help us combat burnout, anxiety, and overwhelm. The episode covers various nervous system states, the concept of "functional freeze," and provides actionable strategies for creating calmness and resilience in daily life.
Key Points Discussed
- Different types of nervous system responses: fight, flight, freeze, and fawn
- Introduction to "functional freeze" and its link to burnout
- The importance of embodiment and emotional neutrality
- Daily practices for nervous system regulation
Takeaway quotes:
"Burnout isn't just about being too busy or working too hard. It's often a sign that our nervous system is out of balance and needs some attention and care."
"The goal isn't to eliminate stress entirely – that's not possible or even desirable. The goal is to build your capacity to handle stress and to create more balance in your nervous system."
