From Survival Mode to Calm: The Self-Care Shift You Need

You know those days when you finally get a moment alone… and you feel too numb or scattered to even enjoy it? You’re not lazy. You’re depleted. And it’s not your fault.

On this episode of the FLO into Health podcast, I talk about:

• Why self-care isn't optional anymore (and why your nervous system agrees)

• What nervous system overload actually looks like—and how to spot the signs

• The difference between collapsing and resetting

• Four simple tools to support nervous system regulation

• Why consistent care beats occasional intensity every time

This episode is a gentle reminder that you don’t have to earn your rest. Real self-care isn’t indulgent—it’s how you come back to life.

Mentioned:

• Bree Melanson’s breathwork session on Insight Timer

• Meditation 101 for Busy Moms

• Reducing Alert Fatigue - Why You Feel So Scattered

• HRV and the Menstrual Cycle

• Join the Mother Your Energy waitlist
