It feels like a storm just comes in and takes over your inner world, leaving you tossed around by waves of anxiety, frustration, or sadness.If you’ve ever felt that way, you are in the right place. This episode is our guide to moving beyond just "calming down" and into the practical, powerful world of mindfulness.I was so excited during this recording because it truly helped me learn how to ground myself in those moments when my anxiety gets the best of me. I'm joined by the incredible psychotherapist Nina Shevon Steverson of Acclivity Mindfulness, who specializes in helping people heal from trauma and develop grounded, healthy emotional habits.Nina redefines mindfulness in a way that just clicked for me: It’s not about fighting your feelings, but learning to become the calm "observer" of your inner world. She explains exactly what’s happening in our minds and bodies when we enter "survival mode" and, most importantly, gives us the tools to regulate our nervous system and signal safety to our brains.This isn't just theory—it's a practical toolkit for taking your power back.In this episode, you will learn:What mindfulness truly is (and what it’s not).A simple, powerful breathing technique you can use to immediately reset your nervous system.The 5-4-3-2-1 grounding exercise to pull you back to the present moment when you feel your mind spinning.How to move from reacting to life to responding to it with intention.Why these accessible tools can be the first step in healing generational burdens and rewiring your brain for peace.This is one of those conversations that can genuinely change your relationship with yourself.
