Nervous System Prep for Summer as a Parent

Season 1 Episode 116 Published 1 year, 1 month ago
Description

When school ends and summer begins, many parents expect a break—but what often comes instead is a spike in stress. In this episode, we explore why summer can feel more dysregulating than restful and how to support your nervous system through the transition. Learn how small, intentional shifts can help you move through this season with more calm, connection, and compassion—for yourself and your kids.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why the transition into summer can overwhelm your nervous system
  • How loose rhythms, not rigid routines, support regulation for both you and your kids
  • What co-regulation looks like in everyday moments (yes, even when it’s chaotic)
  • Why repair after rupture is more important than getting it “right” all the time
  • Simple somatic tools to anchor your body in overstimulating moments
