An End to the Struggle Begins With the Autonomic Nervous System
Janet Namdari • August 22, 2024

If you’re at all like me, when you realized you needed help to be the kind of parent you wanted to be, (but struggled to be) you sought out quick fix tools for your toolbox. 


You read the books. You listened to the podcasts. You enrolled in classes. 


Maybe you’ve even dreamt of step-by-step instructions…A parenting manual? 


The truth is, we can accumulate all the tools in the world from all the experts out there and at the end of the day…


It’s what’s behind the tools that makes the biggest, most impactful difference in the quality of our relationships with our children. 


It’s you, the parent.


It’s how you feel.


It’s your triggers. 


Your past trauma.


Your coping mechanisms. 


Basically, it’s a lot about your story and how safe you feel in your body. 


It’s about how your autonomic nervous system (ANS) responds. 


When you work with me, we begin at the foundational level with body consciousness. You are invited to go within and feel into awareness. 


Together, we examine your particular nervous system responses. 


And you begin the process of healing. 


THIS is where real changes take place. THIS is the beginning of the reprogramming and rewiring process. 


With my guidance, over time and with practice, you find yourself in a much better position to face the challenges that come with parenting other humans (who also come with their own tendencies and stories)…


Like magic, you find yourself responding and showing up differently…


And you can ACTUALLY consistently be the kind of parent you're truly proud to be for your child(ren)!

We’ve got this.


With loving kindness,

Janet

A personal example of knowing that I'm on the right track

Have you been feeling the pull to do less and slow down? And yet you still find yourself 'pushing through'? You're not alone. It seems this is a widespread phenomena amongst those with various backgrounds and roles. Our minds are continuously telling us to keep going with the doing and seeking... Even when we feel exhausted and can barely put one foot in front of the other. We reach for our phones to keep the busy going when there are 'breaks.' It's as if we are constantly avoiding something... It's almost like we're afraid to be still and just BE. We may, logically, know the value of honoring what our body/mind needs, yet we keep choosing the opposite, as if we aren't in control. And in this society that we live in, pausing and slowing down can seem unavailable - even impossible - and certainly undervalued. Enter intention and discipline. You see, If we want to experience more well-being and quality in our lives and in our relationships, we must be disciplined about self-care. We must be clear about our intentions to honor ourselves and our needs. This means getting specific . It means creating and sticking to a plan. And setting boundaries to protect the plan. I realize this may sound daunting and maybe even impossible... And this is where I come into the picture... I help people like you slow down by providing a container where intention is born and needs are uncovered so that a plan can be created to assist with honoring yourself and where you're at in your life. And you then you begin to experience the freedom to be the living, breathing, tuned-in and tapped-in being you were intended to be. Ready to get the support you need to honor yourself?

I’ve made the conscious choice to reject the toxic negativity I see and hear surrounding the topic of perimenopause. To clarify, I’m choosing to view this phase in my life as a natural transition and a sacred invitation. An invitation to show up for myself - like a parent does for their child. To show up in a way that’s conscious and supportive. (NOT judgy and shaming) Feeling called to join me? I’m choosing to recognize that big changes are, indeed, taking place… Reminiscent of the pre-teen and teen years… Anxiety, irritability, pimples, headaches, inflammation, forgetfulness, shifts in sleep patterns, feeling extra tired, body appearance changes, etc. A recalibration of hormones is, indeed, taking place. And I’m choosing to have faith in my body’s process. And if we REALLY pay attention and listen, we gain insight into ways to offer ourselves support… It’s an opportunity to reparent ourselves, by offering compassionate, responsive care. Examples: -Resting when we feel tired, as opposed to ‘pushing through.’ -Noticing and validating uncomfortable feelings that manifest. -Replacing body-shaming tendencies with love and appreciation. Want to join me in cultivating a new, kinder and more functional relationship with yourself? And regardless, of what life stage you’re currently experiencing, I’m here to help.
