Do you feel constantly anxious, exhausted, or stuck in overthinking?
These may be signs of a dysregulated nervous system.

In this episode of Somatic Healing for Wellness-Focused Women, Rae breaks down 6 common signs of nervous system dysregulation and how they show up in your mind, body, and daily life.

Building on last week’s foundational episode on nervous system regulation, this conversation helps you recognize the patterns of anxiety, burnout, and emotional disconnection—so you can begin working with your body instead of against it.

✨ In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why chronic anxiety is a nervous system state (fight-or-flight / hyperarousal)
• How overthinking and rumination are connected to feeling unsafe in the body
• Why you feel constantly exhausted, even when you rest
• Why you struggle to slow down or relax (even when you want to)
• What numbness or disconnection means (freeze / shutdown response)
• How physical symptoms (headaches, digestion, tension, sleep issues) signal dysregulation

Rae also shares how the nervous system is always communicating with you and how these symptoms are not flaws, but intelligent signals from your body asking for safety and support.

These patterns are nervous system responses and they can be gently supported, regulated, and healed through somatic awareness and practice.

🌿 If this episode resonates, Rae invites you to:

• Get curious about your own nervous system patterns
• Explore gentle regulation tools (breathwork, grounding, somatic practices)
• Approach your experience with compassion instead of judgment
