Is Stress Draining Your Spark? Your Nervous System Might Hold the Answer with Dr. Suzanne Bober

Ever feel like no matter how well you eat, how much you sleep, or how often you say “yes” to self-care, your energy still dips, your creativity stalls, or your mind feels too wired to relax?

You're not broken. You're not lazy. You're likely just burnt out on a nervous system level - and it's more common than you think.

Here’s the missing piece: your nervous system is the foundation of your energy, clarity, and calm.

It’s the system that helps you switch between doing and being, creating and resting. But for many of us, stress gets stuck in our bodies - and we stay in overdrive far too long.

The 3 Phases of Stress (and Why So Many of Us Are Stuck in the Last One)

1. Healthy Stress (Alarm): A short burst of energy that helps you rise to a challenge. Think: stage jitters or deadline motivation.

2. Resistance: Your body tries to adapt. You're pushing through, maybe a bit tired, but still functioning.

3. Exhaustion: You’ve been in survival mode for too long. Now you’re running on empty - mentally, emotionally, and physically.

Most women live in stage 3 far longer than they realize. This shows up as anxiety, burnout, hormone imbalances, poor sleep, irritability, or just a general feeling of being “off.”

There Is Another Way: Nervous System-Aware Living

When you learn how to support your nervous system - not just through rest, but through intentional tools - you unlock:

• True, restorative energy (not the kind that crashes mid-afternoon)

• Deeper clarity and confidence in decision-making

• More space for joy, creativity, and connection

This is what I call Infinite Balance - a way of living that aligns your energy with your purpose, without burning out along the way.
