Your nervous system is not fragile.
It’s just allergic to nonsense.

December offers plenty of nonsense:

  • overstimulation
  • overbooking
  • overthinking
  • over-expecting
  • over-everything

If your inner system says, “Nope,” that’s wisdom.

It’s the body’s way of saying:
“This is too much, too fast, for too long.”

A close-up of a large red button with the word “NOPE” in bold cream-colored letters, glowing with a warm light from below against a dark background.

When your whole nervous system quietly votes “Nope.”
(And that’s still a valid response.)

 

Overstimulation is often the outer expression of inner longing:
  • wanting boundaries
  • wanting space
  • wanting slowness
  • wanting fewer demands
  • wanting clarity instead of chaos

Instead of pushing through, try noticing:

“What small thing would help me breathe deeper right now?”

Want deeper support for tending to what you feel and why?
The Healing The Wanting Foundation Trilogy explores the roots of all this with heart, humor, and real tools.
