Self-Belonging Stories

91 / Why you freak out, when life gets quiet and calm


Listen Later

Ever tried slowing down—taking a yoga class, starting work later, giving yourself a proper break—only to find yourself freaking out?


You’re not alone.In this episode, I unpack why calmness can feel so wrong when you’ve been running on busyness and stress for years.

We’ll dive into:

  • Why your system (mind + body) gets addicted to chaos
  • What actually happens when you start to slow down
  • How your “wellness to-do list” might be making things worse
  • And the first steps to making calm feel truly calm (instead of twitchy and restless)


If you’ve ever wondered why yoga, journaling, or self-care doesn’t “work” for you—or why it feels like just another box to tick—this one’s for you.


🎧 Tune in now, and if this resonates, let’s connect: book a free vibe check and start shifting your system for good YAY!
