Why does peace feel so uncomfortable when life finally slows down? If your nervous system has been stuck in fight-or-flight for years, calm moments can feel unsafe—like you’re waiting for the next crisis to hit. In this episode of Inner Sanctuary RAW, we’ll explore why your body resists peace, how trauma rewires your sense of safety, and the steps you can take to retrain your nervous system to trust stillness.

What you’ll discover in this episode:

Why your brain mistakes calm for danger when you’ve lived in survival mode

The connection between nervous system regulation and inner peace

A practical, 1-minute somatic reset to help your body feel safe

How to stop sabotaging calm and start creating safety from within

If you’ve ever felt uneasy in silence, restless when things are “too good,” or addicted to chaos, this episode will help you understand why—and how to shift into a state of peace that actually feels safe.

Feeling overwhelmed or trapped in spiraling thoughts? In this episode of Inner Sanctuary RAW, we explore how anxiety lives in the body—and why your breath is the most powerful tool to reset your nervous system. You’ll learn the science behind how slow, intentional breathing activates the vagus nerve, shifts you out of fight-or-flight, and brings you back to a state of calm.

We’ll end with a guided breath practice you can use anytime anxiety shows up, so you can reclaim your peace in just a few minutes.

What You’ll Learn:

Why anxiety is a body response, not just “in your head.”

The science of breathwork and how it calms the nervous system.

A 4-2-6 guided breathing exercise to ease anxiety fast.

Trauma and the Body | You Can’t Think Your Way to Safety

In this episode of Inner Sanctuary RAW, we explore trauma and the body—specifically why your thoughts alone can’t heal what your nervous system still believes is unsafe. If you’ve been stuck in healing loops despite all the mindset work, this is your turning point.

You’ll learn how trauma shows up somatically, what nervous system dysregulation really means, and how to use breath and body-based practices to create real, embodied safety.

Why trauma lives in the body—not the mind

The science of your vagus nerve, amygdala, and stress responses

Breath-based regulation as a tool for healing

A powerful reframe: You’re not broken. You’re dysregulated.

0:00 – A breath you actually need
0:40 – Why “positive thinking” doesn’t land when trauma lives in your body
2:15 – What is nervous system dysregulation?
3:30 – The science behind stuckness (amygdala, vagus, prefrontal cortex)
4:20 – Guided breath reset to help you regulate
5:30 – You’re not broken. You’re remembering. And you can come home.
