Stop Talking Shit, Start Petting Yourself
from Combative Calm · host Sarai Speer

This episode gives you quick, weird, nervous-system-friendly practices to shift the way you feel in real time: self-hugs, shoulder rubs, grounding breathwork, and one ridiculous roar that shakes the shame right out of your jaw.
