Everything I've learned in 2026 to heal my Nervous System đź’•
Some of these may sound unhinged, but I'm calmer than I've been in years.
1. Protecting my cortisol levels by cutting out caffeinated drinks. My nervous system feels SO much calmer without the constant spikes and crashes... but it also really depends on the day.
2. Stopping sugary drinks because the blood sugar crashes were making my anxiety, irritability, and energy levels so much worse than I realized.
3. Drinking warm bone broth morning and night. This has honestly made one of the biqgest differences for me personally. It feels grounding, calming, nourishing, and comforting to my body,
4. Spending way less time on my phone because I noticed too much scrolling makes me feel overstimulated, irritated, disconnected, and mentally exhausted. But also still guilty of this some days. We aren't focused on perfection here.
5. Getting outside daily because fresh air, sunlight, and nature regulate me almost instantly.
6. Moving my body more because humans were never meant to sit inside all day staring at screens and TVs. Movement changes everything mentally and physically
7. Completely removing alcohol because even small amounts made my nervous system feel dysregulated afterward
8. Using my vibration plate almost daily because it helps me feel calmer, more grounded, and less tense
9. Using my red light mask consistently as part of slowing down and creating calming routines for myself.
10. Protecting my peace from constant negativity, chaos, gossip, and draining conversations.
11. Intermittent fasting... it has completely cleared up my brain fog too. Such a huge difference in how I feel. We aren't meant to eat constantly throughout our days.
Wait there's more, but I'll post more on the next one...
