If you’ve ever felt completely exhausted but still unable to slow down—you’re not broken, and you’re not resting wrong.

This episode explores the wired and tired state: when your body craves rest, but your nervous system is still in overdrive.

We’ll talk about:

• What “wired and tired” actually means (and why it’s so common)
• Why typical rest doesn’t always work for overstimulated or neurodivergent brains
• How to help your body shift gears instead of forcing it to relax
• Gentle tools for sensory grounding, movement before stillness, and layered rest
• Simple, realistic routines for evenings when “doing nothing” feels impossible

💬 “Even when I’m wired and tired, I’m allowed to slow down.

I don’t have to feel calm to start resting.”

You’ll also hear a short guided practice at the end—something you can use anytime to soften your edges and reconnect to rest that actually feels reachable.
