Скачать или смотреть Why Feeling Better Isn’t a Green Light: Working With Your Body as Energy Comes Back

When energy trickles back after burnout or shutdown, it can be tempting to race forward. But the nervous system doesn't work in straight lines. The freeze response is a normal survival mechanism triggered when fight or flight isn’t possible. Dorsal vagal shutdown is an even deeper state of collapse, marked by emotional numbness and low energy. Many people find themselves in a functional freeze — outwardly getting things done but internally feeling numb and drained. This high‑functioning dissociation is a nervous system survival response, not a character flaw.
In this video, you’ll learn why returning energy is just a signal that safety is rebuilding, not a call to pour yourself into action. We’ll discuss how pushing too soon triggers another crash and how urgency feels like a threat to your body. Instead, the key to healing is learning to support early energy without spending it. We’ll explore practices like building body awareness and using deep, slow breaths to reconnect with yourself. You’ll see how sensory‑based tools such as grounding exercises, gentle movement or humming can soothe your nervous system. By choosing self‑compassion and small, manageable steps, you can allow your capacity to grow naturally and avoid repeating the shutdown cycle.
