In this gentle reset, we talk about what overstimulation actually is, why emotional waves can show up out of nowhere, and how to support your nervous system without forcing yourself to “calm down” or figure everything out. This is a hybrid episode, part understanding, part grounding, designed to help you feel a little more steady when you’re overwhelmed, emotionally raw, or just exhausted from holding it together. In this episode, we cover: What overstimulation really means (and why it’s not a failure) Why emotions don’t always need a story or explanation How to create a sense of safety before trying to calm your body Gentle grounding and nervous system resets you can do anywhere Reassuring your body without feeding anxiety or reassurance-seeking Letting your system settle in its own time You don’t need to fix anything while listening to this.
