Neuro-Crash Navigator: Detecting - and Defusing - Your Hidden Signals Of Stress (S.O.S.)

Do you ever:

  • Burst into tears (maybe when you’re alone, maybe in front of others)?
  • Snap at people “for no reason”?
  • Have big reactions to little inconveniences?
  • Promise yourself you won’t over-react again… and then do it, anyway?
  • Notice that you’re holding your breath, tightening your shoulders, chewing your lip, breathing fast, or clenching your jaw?
  • Get headaches, stomachaches, or feelings of exhaustion?
  • Feel like it’s all just too much?

Although all of these things are much more common in people now than they were just a few short years ago, they are not inevitable facts of life. They are products of Neuro-Crashes (and the lead-up to them).

A Neuro-Crash is what happens when your brain and nervous system get overwhelmed to the point where your coping mechanisms shut down. The important thing to understand is that Neuro-Crashes are preventable.

You spend your time, thought, and energy working, taking care of things, and being there in various ways for your loved ones.

Now it’s time to focus on you. On your own mind. Your own well-being. Your own brain. Your own nervous system. Your own mental health. (Doing this will also make life better for the people you care about. One of the best ways to be a good spouse, parent, friend, boss, and colleague is to be a person who is not easily agitated and not prone to Neuro-Crashes.)

Come join us and let us nurture you, guide you, and build within you the sustainable strength and self-understanding to:

  • Detect your own S.O.S. (Signals of Stress) right away so that you can take action to circumvent Neuro-Crashes before they start.
  • Maintain equilibrium within yourself so that you don’t feel on edge.
  • Know your triggers… so you can avoid or deactivate them.
  • Stop reacting in ways you don’t want or can’t understand.
  • Get much more proactive at regulating yourself.
  • Make friends with your nervous system instead of feeling like it's working against you.
  • Understand exactly what you need in order to maintain your own internal homeostasis.

Complete with super clear explanations, very useful handouts, and opportunities to begin implementation, this mini-workshop (which addresses one of the three pillars of mastering your own Neuro-Crashes) is like an owner's manual for your brain and nervous system - allowing you to revamp your reactions, reconnect with your rhythms, and right the ship.
