Smile Sessions With Cristina Perri

The Real Reason You Feel On Edge All the Time


Listen Later

If you’ve ever felt anxious, restless, or constantly “on edge” even when nothing is actually wrong… this episode is for you.
Because this isn’t just in your head.
It’s in your body.
In this episode of Smile Sessions, we explore the deeper reason so many of us struggle to relax—even in moments that should feel calm.
This isn’t about mindset.
It’s about safety.
When your nervous system doesn’t feel safe, calm can feel unfamiliar… even uncomfortable. And without realizing it, you can stay stuck in a constant state of alertness, tension, or unease.
But you’re not broken.
Your body just hasn’t learned what safe feels like yet.
🎧 In this episode, we talk about:
Why you feel “on edge” even when nothing is wrong
The connection between safety and the nervous system
Why calm can feel uncomfortable or unfamiliar
How your body holds onto patterns of survival
What it actually means to feel safe again
This episode is a gentle reminder that healing isn’t about forcing yourself to relax…
It’s about creating safety, slowly and sustainably.
