My daughter was born at the start of COVID when stress was high and I was having career uncertainty. I remember I freaked out when she was born, and recently through SBSM, I realized how this moment was kind of a stored survival stress that made me see parenting as scary and overwhelming. Any tips on how to work on fully releasing that so I can shift my relationship with parenting? I recently started tapping into the joy of parenting after those insights, and I want to experience this fully.

This is my third SBSM and this is the first year in my life I’ve experienced burnout. About five times now where I’ve had to rest for one to two weeks to recover. It usually follows work stress or people that drain me, or doing too much. I had high anxiety for years and then completely shut down before I started somatic work. I had never experienced burnout in my entire life before this. It seems I actually have to do less now with more capacity. Why? If I’m becoming more regulated, am I having less tolerance for stress?
