Nature is already changing, and sensitive bodies often feel that shift before there’s language for it.
If you’ve been feeling more tired, irritable, achy, or off without a clear reason, this episode offers context for what your body may be responding to.
In this episode, we explore how sensitive nervous systems track seasonal and environmental changes, even when modern life encourages us to override those signals. She shares how light, seasons, animal behavior, and ancient cultural markers have long guided human regulation, and why sensitive bodies often feel depleted right before internal energy begins to move again.
You’ll hear about:
Why sensitive bodies feel seasonal shifts earlier and more intenselyHow nature communicates through light, seasons, and animal behaviorWhat phenology is and why it matters for nervous system regulationWhy winter shutdown is not dysfunction, but biological winteringHow Imbolc marks orientation toward light, not forced growthA simple somatic practice to help you listen to what nature is signaling nowThis episode is for sensitive, intuitive, high-performing people who feel deeply affected by seasonal change and want to understand what their body has been responding to beneath the surface.
