Mentally Stronger with Therapist Amy Morin

145 — Calm Your Nervous System With Therapist Liz Kelly


Listen Later

Whether you're nervous about a business meeting or you're overwhelmed and aren't sure why, it's important to have strategies to calm your nervous system at a moment's notice.

Liz Kelly is a therapist and she wrote a book called, This Book Is Cheaper Than Therapy. She offers actionable strategies for improving mental health and psychological well-being. Some of the things we talk about are:

  • The mental health tools to keep on-hand when therapy isn't available
  • How stress manifests physically and what to do to calm your body
  • Practical self-help techniques that calm the nervous system
  • How to build resilience and reduce emotional reactivity over time
  • Why alcohol won't calm your nervous system
  • The true self-care activities that improve long-term well-being
