68: Slowing Down After a Chaotic Childhood and Improving Your Digestion

In this episode, we dive into the effects of living in a constant state of fight-or-flight and how it impacts our digestion and overall well-being. I share my personal journey through burnout and how I learned to embrace a slower, more intentional lifestyle. We’ll explore why sympathetic activation often feels safe, and the steps I took to prioritize my health by setting up systems that support a slower pace of life. We'll discuss practices like yoga nidra, how to stop defining your worth by accomplishments, and practical tips for managing the triggers that cause sympathetic overactivation. I'll also walk you through my slow morning routine that has transformed my days, helping me feel more grounded and centered.
