Epiphanies of a Yoga Instructor 🌀✨
I remember teaching 50 students, feeling the energy in the room buzzing. As a highly sensitive person (HSP), my body was in fight-or-flight. I wasn’t scared—more like electrified. But to stay present, I kept closing my eyes, thinking I was channeling wisdom from great teachers or divine guides.
In reality? I was regulating. My nervous system was dysregulated, and closing my eyes was my body’s way of finding safety so I could access the knowledge I had stored from years of studying. I wasn’t receiving wisdom from outside of me. I was retrieving it from within.
I used to mistake nervous system dysregulation for spiritual downloads. Now I know the difference.
Have you ever experienced this? Do you dissociate when overwhelmed?
Let’s explore this together. I’m hosting a nervous system regulation workshop, where we’ll dive into how to stay embodied even in high-stress moments. If this resonates, drop a 💫 in the comments or DM me for details!
