Regulate to Liberate: How to Calm Your Nervous System and Return to Peace
Show Notes
Hi love, and welcome back to Aligned & Alive—from Within.
In this episode, Kelly Ryan guides you through one of the most life-changing things you can learn: how to recognize when your nervous system is in a stress response—and how to return to a regulated, peaceful state.
When we don’t notice these patterns, stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline flood the body, keeping us trapped in survival mode. Over time, this impacts our health, our relationships, and our sense of self. But with awareness and the right tools, we can rewire these patterns and come home to regulation, ease, and presence.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- The difference between fight, flight, freeze, and fawn—and how each one shows up in daily life
- The physical, emotional, and spiritual costs of chronic stress
- What a regulated nervous system actually feels like
- Simple tools to return to balance: breath, grounding, and safe connection
- How awareness itself begins your healing
Kelly also guides you through a short meditation to help you calm your body, reconnect with your heart, and experience the safety and peace that are already within you.
Key takeaway:
Regulation isn’t about being calm all the time—it’s about having the awareness and tools to return to calm, no matter what life brings. Anchor phrases from this episode:
I am safe.
I am grounded.
I am at peace.
I carry this peace wherever I go.
