307: Feeling Stressed? How to Reset Your Nervous System with Michelle Grosser


Listen Later

Do you feel like your body is constantly on high alert—even when nothing’s technically wrong?

Or maybe you wake up already tired, feel wired-but-exhausted by 2 PM, and no matter how much you “rest,” it never feels like enough?

You're not broken, friend. You're likely stuck in nervous system dysregulation—and today’s episode will help you get back into alignment.

I’m joined by Michelle Grosser, a nervous system coach, somatic practitioner, and former trial attorney who now helps women regulate stress, calm overwhelm, and feel safe and present again in their bodies and lives.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
  • What a dysregulated nervous system actually is—and why it matters

  • How to tell if you’re stuck in fight, flight, or freeze (even if you're “functioning”)

  • Simple 90-second practices to regulate your nervous system on the spot

  • Why hustle feels “safe” to your brain—and how to rewire that response

  • How slowing down physically can create more clarity, peace, and energy

🔥 Quick, Practical Tools Shared:
  • The Physiological Sigh — the 3-second breath technique that soothes your system instantly
  • The Shake + Move Method — what your body needs when you feel anxious or overstimulated
  • Cold touch hacks (yes, frozen peas can regulate your vagus nerve!)
  • The Sensory Grounding Scan — perfect for when you feel stuck, numb, or foggy
💡 Your Takeaway Today:

You don’t have to earn your rest. You don’t have to hustle for your worth. And you don’t have to live in a body that feels like a battlefield.

There are simple, gentle tools that help your nervous system exhale—and once you learn them, everything shifts.
