Your Nervous System Isn’t Your Enemy - Episode 58

Your Nervous System Isn’t Your Enemy - Episode 58

If you’ve ever felt your heart race, your chest tighten, or your body suddenly flood with fear — this episode is for you.

In today’s Tiny Daily Kick, Jason shares a personal moment from the first time anxiety woke him in the middle of the night, convinced something was seriously wrong. What he learned changed everything.

This episode gently explains how the nervous system actually works, why anxiety feels so convincing, and why stress responses don’t mean you’re broken — they mean your body is trying to protect you.

You’ll also learn why how we interpret bodily sensations plays a huge role in anxiety — supported by psychological research showing that people who misinterpret normal stress signals experience significantly higher anxiety than those who understand what’s happening in their body.

🎓 Referenced study:
 A peer-reviewed study published in PLOS ONE examining how catastrophic interpretation of bodily sensations contributes to anxiety responses.

This episode will help you:
 – Stop fearing your own body
 – Understand stress and anxiety more clearly
 – Restore trust in your nervous system
 – Reclaim a sense of calm authority in everyday moments

Your nervous system isn’t broken.
 And you don’t need to fear it anymore.
