Dr. Julie Merriman Episode 52

Send us your thoughts!

Have you ever ended a week so drained from holding everyone else together that the idea of “balance” feels impossible unless it comes with a side of chocolate and zero judgment?

This show helps women healers over 50 who are tired of serious solutions for serious problems. By Friday afternoon, your Root Chakra is wiped from carrying crises, your Solar Plexus is depleted from decision fatigue, and your Throat Chakra is raspy from saying "yes" when you meant "no." If you are looking for a way to recover that doesn't involve more discipline or a to-do list, this episode is your permission slip to just be human.

In this episode, Dr. Julie Merriman—burnout researcher and counselor of 30 years—introduces her completely made-up but surprisingly effective Chakra Snack Alignment System to help you laugh your way back to regulation.

Listen to discover:

  • The "Snack" Strategy: How to use mindful eating and humor as legitimate nervous system regulation tools to interrupt the chronic stress patterns of the work week.
  • Why You Can't "Discipline" Your Way to Peace: Understanding why balance for women over 50 looks less like spiritual performance and more like grounded humanity, nourishment, and play.
  • Reclaiming Your Right to be Ridiculous: Why joy and silliness are essential burnout prevention strategies, and how to reconnect with your energy centers without overthinking a single thing.

If you are ready to stop taking yourself so seriously and start reclaiming your right to be brilliant and playful, start by listening to this episode now!
