We know the scene – everyone’s driving you crazy, you’re trying your best not to lose it, so you pause and take a deep breath.   But what if that deep breath doesn’t seem to make much of a difference?  What if you’re still aggravated, annoyed, frustrated, and upset - and you wonder if breathwork just doesn’t work for you.   In today’s episode, Michelle coaches on how certain types of breathing can actually activate our sypathetic nervous system – the part of our body that amps up for the action of fight or flight.  When we activate our sympathetic nervous system with breath, it can actually make all our big feelings even bigger.   Listen in as Michelle teaches about the mistakes you might be making when you use breath to regulate your nervous system, and what to do instead so that breathwork can be a powerful tool to help calm your body when you need it.      TAKE THE PERSONALITY PATTERN QUIZ!     BOOK A FREE 30-MINUTE DISCOVERY CALL WITH MICHELLE     FB COMMUNITY: The Calm Mom Collective     JOIN ME ON INSTAGRAM: @michellegrosser.coach     “I love The Calm Mom Podcast!” ← if that sounds like you, please consider rating and reviewing our show!  This helps us support more women, just like you, on their motherhood journey.  Click here, scroll to the bottom, tap to rate with five stars, and select “Write a Review.”  Then be sure to let me know what you loved most about the episode!
