How to Become Your Own Safe Place as a Mom - EPS 107

Do you often feel overwhelmed, overstimulated, or like you're always waiting for something to go wrong in motherhood? In this episode, we're talking about nervous system regulation for moms, daily emotional check-ins, and simple calming exercises you can practice with your children.

I'm joined by Cendrine to talk about what she calls daily nervous system hygiene and why caring for your nervous system should become as normal as feeding and taking care of your body. When your nervous system is constantly in high-alert mode, it can be difficult to rest, think clearly, or respond to your children the way you want to.

You may find yourself reacting quickly, feeling on edge, or struggling to feel safe even when nothing is wrong. Cendrine explains how we can create a new normal where we become our own place of safety instead of always looking outside of ourselves for reassurance.

She also walks me through some simple nervous system regulation exercises that moms can practice and teach their children. And yes, we tried a few of them together and had some fun too. lol!

In this episode, we talk about: 💜 How to recognize when you're living in a constant state of high alert. 💜 Why your nervous system needs daily care and attention. 💜 Simple calming exercises for overwhelmed moms and children. 💜 Why setting a boundary to care for yourself shows your children that momma needs maintenance too.

It will also remind you that caring for your emotional health and nervous system benefits your entire family.
