📌 In this episode, we explore the journey from stress and burnout to finding balance and joy in our everyday lives. Emily dives deep into how our nervous system works, the balance between the sympathetic (fight/flight) and parasympathetic (rest/digest) states, and how to expand our capacity for both rest and energy. She shares personal stories about her own experiences with burnout and the practices she’s used to build resilience, such as breathwork, yoga, and taking intentional breaks.

💫 What You'll Learn:

• The stages and signs of burnout (it's not just extreme exhaustion)
• How to expand your nervous system's capacity for relaxation and peace
• The difference between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems
• Why both "putting on the gas" and "hitting the brakes" are crucial for nervous system health
• Practical tips for regulating your nervous system using breathwork, yoga, and more
• The importance of titration (slow, measured growth) to avoid nervous system overwhelm

1. Calming the Nervous System: Learn how I quieted the chaos within to finally tune into my intuition, allowing me to gain clarity on my true desires.
