✨ Comment CALM KIDS to receive my Free Healing Together guide✨

Over the Christmas holidays, many children are tired, wired, and overstimulated.

Later nights, broken routines, richer food, more screens, louder environments — and we’re often asking far too much of their little nervous systems.

Children don’t self-regulate in isolation.
They borrow calm from the adults around them.

The most powerful nervous system support doesn’t just happen during meltdowns — it happens in small moments of safety throughout the day.

A quick hug and gentle side-to-side rocking.
A butterfly hug or a few minutes of tapping before bed.
Legs up the wall to help busy bodies slow down.

Alongside these tools, regulation also looks like:

• Earlier or consistent bedtimes where possible
• Regular meals to support blood sugar
• Less screen time, especially before sleep
• Time outside and grounding in nature
• A “safe signal” — a word, a look, or holding your arm when they feel overwhelmed
• Knowing they can step away from noise or family intensity without explanation

For neurodivergent children, this must always be child-led.
If your child doesn’t want to be touched or tapped, that’s okay — calm proximity, slower movement, or quiet presence can be just as regulating.

And just as importantly — your nervous system matters too.

When a child is dysregulated, it’s often helpful to gently look at the nervous systems of the adults around them.
If we are overwhelmed, rushed, or dysregulated, their system will feel it.

Regulating ourselves is one of the most powerful ways we support our children.

These small moments of co-regulation shape how a child learns safety in their body — for life.

Happy Christmas

Comment GOOD MORNING for ways to support your nervous system from first thing in the morning 🌅

If you’re living with ongoing symptoms — things like persistent fatigue, digestive issues, pain, anxiety, inflammation, sleep disruption, or a general sense that your body just isn’t “settling” — it can be easy to believe something is fundamentally wrong.

But very often, what’s happening is more subtle.

When the nervous system has been under repeated or prolonged stress — emotional, relational, physical, or psychological — it learns to stay alert. Not consciously, but automatically. Over time, this constant readiness becomes the background state of the body.

You might notice that:
• your body struggles to fully relax, even when life looks calm
• symptoms flare during busy periods, emotional conversations, or transitions
• rest doesn’t feel as restorative as it should
• your system reacts strongly to things that “shouldn’t” feel threatening

This isn’t because your body is malfunctioning.
It’s because it has adapted to protect you.

The nervous system doesn’t make decisions based on logic or long-term health. It responds to patterns. And if pressure, urgency, or unpredictability has been present for long enough, the system starts to treat that state as familiar — even if it’s exhausting.

Healing, then, isn’t about convincing your body to calm down.

It’s about slowly, repeatedly showing your system that safety exists now — through consistent rhythms, gentle regulation, and experiences that your body can actually feel, not just understand.

This is why small, repeated practices matter more than occasional big ones.
And why healing often looks quieter than we expect.

Your body isn’t working against you.
It’s been working incredibly hard for you.

If this speaks to you, know that you don’t have to navigate this on your own.
The next Nervous System Reset Program starts in January — a 12-week, gently guided and fully supported healing journey.❤️

Comment HEALING to receive my free guide if you’re struggling with negative thoughts or overwhelm 🤍

So often, when we’re healing from trauma, we can feel like we’re broken. Like something inside us is damaged or not working the way it should.

But the truth is, you are so far from broken.

Your body has done exactly what it was designed to do. It adapted. It protected you. It learned how to survive in environments where safety, reassurance, or support may not have been consistently available.

Through a nervous system lens, everything begins to make sense. The hypervigilance. The shutdown. The people-pleasing. The racing or looping thoughts. These are not flaws, they are intelligent survival responses shaped by your body’s need for safety.

Healing isn’t about forcing yourself to think differently or pushing yourself to “move on.” It’s about helping your nervous system feel safe enough to soften, to settle, and to come back into connection with yourself.

Now is the time to meet your body with love instead of criticism.
With compassion instead of pressure.
With curiosity instead of judgment.

When we support the nervous system in a way it may never have been supported before, the body begins to trust again — and healing becomes possible, gently and sustainably.

If you feel like you need deeper support, my Nervous System Reset Program starting in January is a beautiful way to work through some of what you’re experiencing. It’s a fully supported, step-by-step 12-week programme designed to help your nervous system find safety, stability, and ease again.

You don’t have to do this alone.

Comment UNDERSTAND to get my free guide to gain deeper understanding of your nervous system.

There’s often a moment after a strong reaction where shame creeps in.
Why did that affect me so much?
I should be past this by now.

But your nervous system isn’t asking how old you are.
It’s asking one question only: am I safe?

When something in the present echoes an earlier experience — even subtly — the body can respond as if that moment is happening again. Not because you’re stuck in the past, but because your system learned a way to protect you before you had choice, language, or context.

That response isn’t a failure of healing.
It’s a sign of how intelligently your body adapted.

Real change doesn’t come from forcing calm or analysing harder.
It comes from building enough safety now that those older patterns no longer need to take the lead.

This work is gentle.
It’s paced.
And it’s deeply compassionate.

You’re not behind.
Your body is learning.
And this takes time.

Be gentle with yourselves, we are not meant to get it perfect.

With love

Comment RESET for deeper nervous system support.

Trauma isn’t defined by how “big” or “small” something looks from the outside.

It’s defined by how supported the nervous system felt in the moment.

When something overwhelming happens and there isn’t enough safety, connection, or capacity to cope, the nervous system adapts in the only way it knows how — through protection.

That protection might look like:
• anxiety or hypervigilance
• shutdown or numbness
• people-pleasing or fawning
• control, perfectionism, or overthinking
• chronic tension or physical symptoms

None of these are signs of weakness.
They are intelligent survival responses.

Trauma forms when the body has to carry an experience alone — without enough support to process, discharge, and return to safety.

And because the nervous system learns through experience, not logic, it continues to protect long after the original moment has passed.

This is why healing isn’t about forcing yourself to “move on”, “let it go”, or think differently.

Healing happens when the body is given new experiences of safety — consistently, gently, and over time.

Through:
• co-regulation
• nervous system regulation
• safe relationships
• compassionate awareness
• a pace the body can tolerate

When safety returns, the nervous system no longer needs to stay on high alert.

And slowly, the body learns:
I’m not alone anymore. I don’t have to cope by myself.

This is how trauma heals — not through force, but through safety, support, and presence.

Please reach it for deeper support.🫶

Comment VIDEO to get a free guided video to help calm your nervous system down and bring a sense of safety into your body.

If you’ve ever felt frustrated with yourself for “still feeling anxious” even when you know you’re safe — this is why.

When the nervous system detects threat, it triggers a protective response in the body first. That response is fast, automatic, and not something you can talk yourself out of in the moment.

That’s why the fire alarm metaphor matters:

When an alarm is blaring, you don’t try to reason with it.
You create safety, reduce the activation, and then you reassess.

Anxiety is similar. The “alarm” might be:
• a real stressor
• a buildup of pressure and fatigue
• old protective wiring from past experiences
• a body that’s learned to anticipate danger

So the goal isn’t to shame the alarm.
And it’s not to silence it through force.

The goal is to support your system to come back into safety — through regulation, nervous system tools, and repetition over time.

When the body settles, the mind naturally becomes clearer.
Not because you “finally got it right”…
but because survival mode is no longer running the show.

With love always

Comment TOOLS for 5 ways to help your body in these moments. 🌿

We’re so conditioned to solve anxiety with thinking.
“Calm down.”
“Think positive.”
“Don’t worry about it.”
But when your nervous system is activated, thinking becomes the loudest noise in the room — and often the least helpful.

An anxious mind is simply the echo of an overwhelmed body.

Your system is trying to mobilise, protect, or shut down with the resources it has in the moment.
And until you shift the state, your thoughts will keep reflecting that same internal signal.

This is why body-first work is so powerful.
It’s not about ignoring the mind — it’s about giving the mind a regulated foundation to stand on.

When you soften your exhale, orient to safety, ground your feet, or give yourself permission to pause…
you’re not “fixing” anxiety.
You’re creating the conditions where your brain can finally recalibrate.

The goal isn’t to never feel anxious.
It’s to understand the language your body is speaking, so you can respond from compassion instead of fear.

When your body feels safer, your thoughts naturally become clearer, lighter and more regulated — without forcing them.

Hope this helps
With love
Sarah xx
