These demands might not necessarily result from stress; you might genuinely enjoy what you do and love your children and job. However, the constant demands place ongoing stress on your body, which can trigger hormonal changes. These changes often manifest in elevated cortisol levels within the adrenals, leading to thyroid issues and disruptions in hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. These hormonal imbalances can then cause irregular periods, alterations in hair, weight fluctuations, and other outward signs, which are essentially downstream indications of an underlying root cause problem.” - Lori Aikman   ASK MICHELLE A QUESTION!   REGULATION RESOURCES    TAKE THE PERSONALITY PATTERN QUIZ!   BOOK A FREE 30-MINUTE CALL WITH MICHELLE   FB COMMUNITY: The Calm Mom Collective   JOIN ME ON INSTAGRAM: @michellegrosser.coach   “I love The Calm Mom Podcast!” ← if that sounds like you, please consider rating and reviewing our show!  This helps us support more women, just like you, on their motherhood journey.  Click here, scroll to the bottom, tap to rate with five stars, and select “Write a Review.”  Then be sure to let me know what you loved most about the episode!>>> ROCKSTAR MOM VIRTUAL SUMMIT (free) - REGISTER HERE! <<< >>> 💌 DOWNLOAD THE NERVOUS SYSTEM RESET GUIDE <<<

We often talk about mapping the state of our nervous system so we can recognize when we’re feeling dysregulated and use our tools to bring safety back into our body and ease out of a stress response.   But do you ever question whether you’re actually feeling calm and regulated, or you’re numb and not feeling much of anything at all?   There is overlap between the ventral vagal (regulated) and the dorsal vagal (shut down) states and sometimes it can be tricky to distinguish the two.     In today’s bonus Q&A episode, I give you 5 questions to ask yourself to distinguish whether you’re actually in a calm, regulated state or if it’s more likely you’re experiencing numbness, dissociation, and burnout.     TAKE THE PERSONALITY PATTERN QUIZ!   ASK MICHELLE A QUESTION!   REGULATION RESOURCES   BOOK A FREE 30-MINUTE CALL WITH MICHELLE   FB COMMUNITY: The Calm Mom Collective   JOIN ME ON INSTAGRAM: @michellegrosser.coach   “I love The Calm Mom Podcast!” ← if that sounds like you, please consider rating and reviewing our show!  This helps us support more women, just like you, on their motherhood journey.  Click here, scroll to the bottom, tap to rate with five stars, and select “Write a Review.”  Then be sure to let me know what you loved most about the episode!  >>> ROCKSTAR MOM VIRTUAL SUMMIT (free) - REGISTER HERE! <<< >>> 💌 DOWNLOAD THE NERVOUS SYSTEM RESET GUIDE <<<
