Parenting with Our Nervous System in Mind Episode 36
Have you ever shouted at your kids out of nowhere — and then instantly wondered, “Where did that even come from?”
The truth is, your nervous system was probably running the show. When we’re overstimulated or stressed, our body can flip into “danger mode” even when there isn’t real danger. That’s when fight, flight, or freeze takes over, and parenting suddenly feels harder than it should.
In this episode, we talk about:
✨ Why your nervous system matters in parenting
✨ How to notice the signs before you hit the “red zone”
✨ Practical ways to calm your stress response (touch, nature, laughter, grounding)
✨ How your regulation helps your kids learn to regulate too
