INSIGHT

Nervous System Trumps The Thinking Brain

  • Chronic stress locks your nervous system into fight-or-flight and prevents clear thinking.
  • Mel Robbins says settling the nervous system is required to access creativity and opportunity.
ADVICE

Flip Your Vagus Nerve Every Morning

  • Do a simple vagus-nerve flip each morning: press the center of your chest, breathe, and speak calming phrases.
  • This shifts you from sympathetic alarm to parasympathetic calm so your brain can work effectively.
ADVICE

Use Short Mantras To Regulate Quickly

  • Say three calming sentences while pressing your chest: 'I'm ok. I'm safe. I'm loved.' and repeat until you feel grounded.
  • Use this to stop alarm-mode thinking and return to a focused, strategic state.
