Are you using food to numb out or are you relaxing?
In today’s episode, we’re exploring the difference between numbing out and true relaxation. Have you ever found yourself mindlessly snacking while scrolling your phone or zoning out in front of the TV after a long day? It might feel like relaxation, but often, it’s something else—numbing out. We’ll break down: ✅ Why we turn to food, screens, or distractions to numb out ✅ How stress and overwhelm affect the nervous system ✅ The difference between numbing behaviors and real relaxation ✅ Practical steps to shift from numbing out to true rest and recharge By the end of this episode, you’ll have tools to create genuine relaxation habits that leave you feeling refreshed, rather than disconnected. Key Takeaways ✔ Numbing out happens when your nervous system is stuck in "freeze mode," causing you to disconnect rather than truly relax. ✔ True relaxation happens when you’re present in the moment, engaged with your body, and allowing your nervous system to reset. ✔ To shift from numbing to relaxation, practice small habits like mindful eating, breathwork, gentle movement, and setting boundaries with screens.
