Video Library
The nervous system is the gateway to our quality of life. It shapes how we experience the world, how safe or stressed we feel, and how we show up in our most valued relationships.
For many of us, no one ever taught us how to be with emotions in a healthy, supportive way. Instead, we learned to push through, override signals, or stay on high alert. Add the lingering effects of trauma, chronic stress, or anxiety, and the system can remain stuck in patterns that no longer serve us.
Learning to work with your nervous system isn’t a trend—it’s a proven, necessary foundation for lasting well-being. The practices in this library are designed to help you build safety, capacity, and regulation—gently and at your own pace—so change can actually take hold.

Calming Reset Breath
This breathing technique is a research-supported way to settle both the body and mind. Backed by findings from Stanford’s Huberman Lab, it helps reduce stress, slow the heart rate, and cue the nervous system to return to calm. Just a few rounds can make a noticeable difference.
Emotional Steadiness
The Butterfly Hug is a nervous system regulation practice that creates bilateral stimulation—activating both sides of the brain. This alternating rhythm supports the brain in moving out of a stress or survival response and into a more balanced, integrated state.
Safety-signaling Hold
A gentle, self-soothing practice that uses touch to calm the nervous system and create a sense of stability in the body. This simple technique supports emotional regulation, grounding, and connection—especially during moments of overwhelm or anxiety.
Stretch-Reach-Release
Sometimes the body holds on to the actions that never got to happen during moments of fear, overwhelm, or threat. This gentle somatic practice invites the body to complete those unfinished actions through slow, mindful arm extensions.
Releasing Hyper-focus
This video offers a gentle way to calm an overactive nervous system and reduce hypervigilance- helping the brain shift out of “fight or flight” and into a more grounded, expansive state.
Gentle Heart Taps
Gently tapping the center of your chest stimulates the thymus gland, supporting immune function, boosting energy, and promoting emotional balance.
Nurturing Touch
Rooted in the work of researcher Dr. Kristin Neff on mindful self-compassion, this exercise uses nurturing touch to signal steadiness and care, and helps shift us from self-criticism to self-kindness.
Moving Between Sensations
If you’ve ever felt stuck in stress, anxiety, or shutdown, pendulation helps your nervous system shift out of those states by following the body’s natural rhythm — not by force, but through gentle regulation.
