The holidays can feel joyful and overwhelming at the same time. When routines shift and emotions run high, the nervous system works overtime to keep you safe. If you feel more tired, stressed, or reactive this time of year, nothing is wrong with you. It is your brain responding to increased demand.
Research shows that during stress the amygdala becomes more active while the prefrontal cortex becomes less accessible, which can lead to emotional reactivity, difficulty sleeping, and feeling “on edge.”
Neurofeedback helps retrain these patterns by guiding the brain back toward flexibility and balance.
Studies have shown that neurofeedback supports emotional regulation and stress resilience (Arns et al., 2014), improves sleep (Cortoos et al., 2010), and increases cognitive flexibility and focus (Grin-Yatsenko et al., 2020). In seasons when the nervous system faces extra load, gentle brain-based support can make a meaningful difference.
If this time of year feels heavy, overstimulating, or emotionally layered, you are not alone. Your nervous system deserves care too.
