5 Signs Your Nervous System Needs A RESET
Sangheetha ParthasarathyYou're unable to relax on vacation and always need to be learning despite trying your best to switch off (Your nervous system is in overdrive) Even though you may be achieving great things, you have a hard time taking in your competencies (Your nervous system is wired to ‘not good enough’) You have ‘shiny object’ syndrome, where you're constantly enrolling in new courses or programs, but never manage to finish (Your nervous system is looking for a quick fix) You’re hypervigilant to other people's needs (Your nervous system is acting from a place of hyperarousal) There’s a huge gap between what you THINK and what you DO (Your nervous system is driving your actions) When your nervous system is working overtime, there’s an overreliance on your sympathetic and dorsal systems… Which is the equivalent of driving down a highway with no speed limit, only having to screech to an emergency stop. Accelerate… Stop… Repeat. It’s exhausting. But it is possible to re-sequence self-regulation. No more accelerating from 0-60 mph in seconds. No more coming to a crashing halt. Instead, life feels fulfilling and fun! So if you’re feeling stuck, burnout, and exhausted right now… Know there’s a way out.
