Did You Know?

Chronic stress shrinks your hippocampus—your memory center.

Fight-or-flight diverts blood away from your prefrontal cortex (where decision-making lives).

The vagus nerve is your brain’s calm-down switch.

3 Practices to Shift Out of Stress Mode:

-Vagus Nerve Toning – Try humming, gargling, or cold exposure.

-Name the Feeling – “Name it to tame it” helps shift from reaction to awareness.

-Pause & Breathe – 6 deep breaths a minute resets your nervous system in under 60 seconds.

Mantra of the Week:

“I am safe to feel. I am safe to slow down.”

Thanks for watching!
