This episode pairs with the 5-Minute Micro-Grounding Meditation For Overstimulated Moments on my YouTube channel.

Why does ‘just breathe’ never seem to work when you’re overwhelmed, overstimulated, or in full sensory overload? 

In this episode, I break down why breathing techniques alone fall short and don’t support highly sensitive, empathic, and neurodivergent people — and what you can do instead. 

We’ll explore nervous system science, holistic tools, and soul-centered practices that truly help you reset and find peace in a noisy world. If you’ve ever felt dismissed by quick-fix advice, this episode will give you the compassion and tools you’ve been craving.

SPEAKER_00:

Welcome to the Soulful Expression Podcast, a space where we explore the deep connection between mind, body, and soul. I'm your host, Marjorie, your holistic, trauma-informed intuitive coach and somatic and energy healing practitioner. This show is dedicated to uncovering the root causes of mental, physical, and emotional imbalances through a blend of thematic practices, subconscious healing, and spiritual wisdom. My intention is to help you bridge the gap between the physical and the spiritual, guiding you to tend to your inner world with care, compassion, and awareness. Each episode is an invitation to reclaim your well-being and align with your highest self. If you're ready for intuitive and psychic guidance and to live a soul-led, heart-centered, and consciousness-expanding life, then keep listening. Hello and welcome, beautiful souls, to another episode on the Soulful Expression podcast. I'm your host, Marjorie, and this is your space to soften and reset. Today we are going to talk about why the advice just breathe doesn't cut it for highly sensitive people and empaths and what actually works instead. When we are in a hectic or somewhat chaotic situation that can be stress and anxiety inducing, we might hear from others, you're okay, just breathe. And for some of us, hearing these words can be helpful, but for some of us, we might not even hear them. If the other person's nervous system is sending out signals of stress, but the person is saying, yo, chill, then it won't do anything for us because all the other person is trying to subconsciously achieve is to calm their own nervous system. So just breathe doesn't fully land in a sensitive, neurodivergent system. Words alone are like empty capsules because the energy, the connection, and the intention behind them are missing. As a result, we might feel dismissed, frustrated, or even more anxious. So let's talk about this today, okay? But before we do, let me share the soul card that I pulled as a form of energetic guidance that we can anchor into when it comes to today's topic. Now, for those among us tuning in for the first time, I want you to know that for almost every episode, I pull a card from my deck and I ask for guidance that we can anchor into pertaining to the topic we talk about. So if a nugget of wisdom is landing in you, just know this message is supposed to be heard by you. This guidance applies at any time you're listening to this episode, no matter when it first aired. The energy reading is nonlinear and will find you when you're ready to hear it. So as always, take what resonates and leave the rest. Alright, so the anchor card we received for today's topic is the Queen of Wands. This is a highly creative energy paired with us being our sovereign feminine self. So when we apply this main message to just breathe and to our sensitivity, it's guiding us to anchor into our own inner flame, which can be held and nurtured through the things we love doing. Anything that's got to do with projects, activities, and things that aren't bound to a schedule or a fixed static timeline. It's about letting our juices flow that will support our nervous system to find safety, calm, and joy. These in turn help us calm down from overwhelm, from over stimulation, from stress and anxiety, and from physical symptoms that our body creates in order to signal us when something doesn't sit right with us. Now, as highly sensitive, neurodivergent, and deeply empathic people, we are being asked to explore what really makes us feel light, what feels like pleasure to our system, what's something that we can do that goes beyond just breathe? What's a truly nourishing self-care practice or creative endeavor that supports and honors our sensitivity? Maybe there's a passion that lights up our inner fire. Maybe there are people who know exactly how to hold us. This is a really beautiful invitation to explore what works for us and what doesn't, what we need to make space for and what needs to go, right? And then having the courage to take that next step in favor of our well-being. The Queen of Wands also encourages us to be confident in our sensitivity because it's a superpower, a gift that makes us experience life in a rich and in-depth way. Can we be courageous enough to be who we are? Can we be bold enough to not see our sensitivity as a weakness, but rather as our strong suit? How can we be in our own royal energy and embody our inner queen? The Queen of Wands is a natural leader, able to attract and inspire others. So, how can we be in our most powerful, feminine, creative, sovereign self and give ourselves that gentle self-care and downtime that goes beyond just breathe? Because this is what's going to make us more magnetic. We are creating life from our essence. So, this is the energy reading. I hope this guidance is meaningful to you. And again, take what resonates and leave what doesn't. Whatever landed in your system was meant to be placed in your awareness. You can journal about it, you can observe how this plays out in your day-to-day life or work relationships. Just pay attention and notice how this energy wants to emerge and be worked with. Okay. Now, before we move on to the actual episode, I'd like for us to set an intention. And you can do it silently in your head or write it down on a piece of paper or on your phone. And I'm going to share my intention for this topic with you, okay? So my intention is that by the end of this episode, you will understand why your nervous system needs more than just surface level techniques and what powerful practices can actually support us as a sensitive, empathic, andor neurodivergent soul. So let's break down what people usually mean when they say just breathe, okay? As said earlier, it's a subconscious attempt to calm down their own nervous system because they don't know any other way. Of course, this can help, especially for those who are trained in working with their breath, but let's be honest, most aren't, much less trained in working with their own nervous system. So what happens is they want a quick calm down and they're forcing relaxation, but that just doesn't work. You've probably experienced it yourself or with other people that when we schedule our vacation, we have to relax then and there. But then we arrive and see all the little and big things that need to be done, organized, checked, etc. There's this muffled down lower key hustle pattern coming out, which blocks true and deep relaxation. We see something in the accommodation that doesn't sit well with us. We smell the environment and scan its energy, we feel into our temporary home, and sometimes it can be overwhelming or even triggering. So when we hear someone say, just breathe, it means that they themselves are stressed by how we move through a less familiar situation. It's not that we don't trust the environment or the situation, it's that it happens automatically or even unconsciously. So sensitive people and empaths have a sensitive nervous system, have sensitive sensory experiences, have more stimuli, and therefore have more to take in and process. The thing is, sensitive, empathic, and neurodivergent people process stimuli differently because the nervous system is more reactive, easily overstimulated, and has a lower window of tolerance. So breathing along doesn't regulate deeper dysregulation that's rooted in trauma, chronic stress, or sensory overload. But I don't want to completely dismiss breathing as it's just as an important aspect as applying long and short-term self-care practices. And actually, the best way to support repair and tone our nervous system is during times of relaxation and non-reactive, non-triggering moments in our day-to-day. Because come a stressful period or an anxiety attack and panic episode, it's already programmed to find safety while being triggered. So it really pays off to practice in between when we're not dysregulated or overstimulated or overwhelmed and so forth. Have you ever had a panic or anxiety attack and someone told you to calm down and just breathe? I certainly had these experiences, and even medics and a doctor telling me to just stay calm. Of course, nothing life-threatening can happen during a panic or anxiety episode. So I understand why they would say that. So yes, they're doing their job, but do they have the ability and capacity to take care of very sensitive people? So the support, care, and medical attention need to encompass practices that are adapted to highly sensitive nervous systems so that we can experience instant relief. This is why I'm putting something together that's very close to my heart. I won't share any specifics yet, as it's not quite ready, but I want you to know that it's going to be a safe, nurturing, and trauma-informed space, specifically designed for highly sensitives, for empaths, for healers, and for neurodiverse leaders and change makers like you. And one of its focuses is that it takes into account not only your sensitivity and gifts, but also the current season you're in and ways we can align with and navigate our own rhythm at our own pace, free from overstimulation, fatigue, and anxiety. So if you subscribe to my monthly soul letter, you'll be the first to know once this heart-led soul project is ready. And if you want to know more about the nervous system, I talk in previous episodes about the sympathetic and the parasympathetic nervous system and the survival responses. I'll link them down below in the show notes so we can dork out on the importance of a regulated, flexible, and healthy nervous system. Okay. Now, because of the highly sensitive nervous system, sensitive, empathic, and neurodivergent people process life differently, right? It's because their brains and nervous systems are wired differently. And because of that, there's heightened reactivity and the need for a longer recovery time. I'm sure you're familiar with going to a party or family gathering and then coming back home and just needing downtime in a quiet space where you're not scrolling, not reading, not listening to music or a podcast. You're just hanging out with yourself, winding down, processing, reducing stimuli, breathing in dim lights, maybe enjoying a cup of tea or engage in low effort tasks that connect you with your body, with your breath, with the energy of your home. For me, it can sometimes look like grabbing my noise-canceling headphones and moving to another room when my kids are too noisy. So I can breathe and process the energies for a couple of minutes. And this is so helpful, especially because I won't discharge the picked-up stimuli and energies back to the kids by, for example, snapping at them because my system short-circuited or feeling agitated because they won't shut up after asking them to turn their volume down. Sometimes they're in their element and it's not actually noisy, but for my sensitivity levels, it is. So built-in recovery time is necessary and essential in order not to feel drained, fatigued, or burned out, right? And sometimes simple day-to-day situations like going to the farmer's market and being surrounded by a crowd of people can already be very overstimulating. This is why it's so important to have practical tools in your pocket that you can apply in acute situations. Practicing them in non-acute situations is key because it expands our window of tolerance, our capacity to hold more energy. For one, breathing can be helpful, but often too simplistic when deeper somatic, energetic, and emotional layers are involved. Our body knows best, right? And you've heard me talk about our body constantly and consistently communicating with us, letting us know what feels good, what feels off, where there's tension, constriction, and imbalances, where there's pain and heavy energy, which emotions are prominent and predominant and which are muted or suppressed. And because the body is the physical agent, transmitter, and broadcaster of the intangible energies we're sensing, it's so good to have the energetic awareness and the trauma-informed tools to work with in deeper ways. And so let's talk about what we actually need, okay? The first thing I want to say is we don't need quick fixes. They're never sustainable, they deepen the scar, the pain, the overstimulation, even more so. Quick fixes work temporarily, yes, but really just for a few hours to one week max, depending on how the quick fix looks like. If anything, they solidify and confirm to our nervous system and brain that being in survival state can reoccur or even be a constant state, which at the end of the day isn't our natural state. We're not supposed to be in constant survival. But stress, anxiety, overstimulation, pushing through, overextending, these all contribute to being in a constant survival state. And so this is why surface-level self-care practices simply don't work. They don't take our nervous system and how our body is wired into consideration. We often hear that working out feels good, but if you do exercises that aren't familiar to the nervous system or even trigger it, then the workout will feel strained. And even if we were to push through with the same exercises again and again, thinking that our body will get used to them, what we are actually doing here is re-traumatizing our body again and again. This, and together with the belief that I have to push through because my body will thank me later, is the exact reason why we don't lose weight or gain muscles, or why we feel like nothing is moving towards our desired results. And so it's not just mindset or physical workout, these are merely aspects that we limit ourselves to, but it's the holistic, multidimensional approach that brings results. So again, we don't need surface-level self-care practices. What we need is an understanding of how to safely implement self-care practices. Rather than seeking relief from outside ourselves and doing the practices that we think are working, why not learn our body's communication style? Why not retrain our nervous system away from trauma, stress, and old patterns that aren't of service anymore? Why not explore nurturing our wants and needs, set healthy boundaries, and nourish our body in a wholesome way that works for us? And why not learn to effectively deal with stress and overstimulation and sustainably practice self-care as a new lifestyle? Because with this understanding, we do a shit ton of preventive work that slows down aging, that helps our digestion, that improves our sleep, that prevents chronic pain and illnesses, that protects our sensitive energy, and on top of that, they nourish our creativity. So life can be not just livable, but also lighter, more fun and meaningful and happier and more relaxed and more connected, right? And I see it in a lot of sensitive people's communities that members are frustrated because they've had enough of quote life being against them, where nothing works out, even though they've tried everything. They're exhausted, and I feel with them. But what I'm also seeing here is that there is little to no awareness of the energy they're putting out. They feel miserable because they're using their sensitivity as an excuse to give up. They see their sensitivity as weakness and waste away in self-pity and misery, but it doesn't have to be this way. There are tons of practices, exercises, rituals, steps we can do and take that we can also include and incorporate as fixed things in our life. Because once we start healing inside, the outer world will reflect back to us that which we are ready to welcome into our lives. It always starts with us, with looking within, with sweeping shit from our own front door first. And we can begin by asking ourselves why nothing has worked out for us. Maybe we've taken steps that aren't in alignment with our energy levels, steps that don't honor our sensitivity. Maybe our nervous system is fried and can only operate from scarcity, frustration, and lack. Maybe our body is asking us to create a safe space first so we can gain more clarity on which next aligned steps to take. Maybe it's about taking the leap and leave the disturbing exhausting comfort zone. Because I often see in these communities that their members have limited capacity to hold space for themselves. Many of us have no clue how to comfort ourselves without activating old habits that bring instant gratification, like online shopping, scrolling, addictions, procrastinating, sleep deprivation, and other forms of meaningless non-action. It's one thing to know about our sensitivity, but it's another to know exactly how to cultivate nourishing self-care practices that strengthens this gift. So now some of us are probably wondering, yeah, girl, I hear you, but what should I do? I've got you covered, Babe. I'll share some simple tools here that are so easily applicable to daily life. It's absurd how simple yet effective they are. We might even disregard them because we still think that a big change must come with big steps. But that's not actually true. A big change comes with the compounding tiny steps that we take on a daily basis. And the best way to illustrate this is, and this is just an example, through the journey of weight loss. Okay. So when we decide to lose weight, we often make the mistake of eating less and trying out different diets and protocols and whatnot in order to achieve our dream body. But losing weight doesn't happen overnight or in two weeks or in three months. It can take years of effort, dedication, and discipline because it's a journey. One that simply takes time in order for the body to adapt to a new routine, to a new diet, to a new sleep pattern, to a new regimen, to a new mindset, to a new level of awareness, to the different aspects that we learn about ourselves as we go through the weight loss journey. We learn that some exercises and practices work better than others. We learn to experiment and play with recipes and ingredients. We learn new formulas that are solely applicable to our own unique body and energy composition. And when we don't work with our nervous system, we snap right back to old habits and patterns because it triggers our survival modes. So, in a way, we're fostering a personal paradigm shift in order to achieve our goal, which is losing weight and having our dream body, right? And what does this give us? Happiness, freedom, lightness, self-trust, confidence, flexibility, and the ability to embrace our flaws, our shadows, and all the beautiful aspects that make us us. And this applies to anything and everything. It's not just weight loss. That's the whole process of manifestation, really. It's about the journey and how much we grow in the process. Because without that dedication and love for ourselves and our body, we'll simply stay where we are, stagnant, static, and stuck, right? Okay, so now that you know and hopefully understand better what my point is, let's look at the practices that support us beyond just breathe. So please keep in mind that the practices I'm sharing all go hand in hand. We are looking at a holistic and multidimensional approach, right? To work with our nervous system and to turn our sensitivity to our strength in superpower. It's not about, oh, I have this one practice and I'm gonna do just that. Think about it like an ecosystem, right? Let's say in the morning you have your self-care practice ritual, and then after a couple of calls or and after you've sent a couple of emails, you take a short five to ten minute break and do another practice. You would basically sprinkle these practices all over your day. Okay, so keep that in mind. Look at it as um strengthening your sensitivity and looking at it as your superpower. So, what I'm sharing is not a quick fix or a boring linear one-way street, like one modality or just exercising. We know by now that these alone don't work, right? So, for starters, somatic rounding, which is mainly about the body and the connection to the nervous system and our senses. So, this is super essential for sensitives and empaths. Because when we're overstimulated, we are so through the many external stimuli and emotional scatteredness and sensory overload, which can stop us in our tracks. And so coming back to our body and becoming centered in it is what we call somatic grounding. It can be through touch, movement, orienting in our environment, and breath. Noticing the stimuli that interact with our nervous system, noticing the emotions and how our body reacts to sensory overload. And this is a beautiful way to get to know your body, the sensations you're feeling, which stimuli create, which trigger or activation, right? So it's a very beautiful way to also explore and to expand your awareness. The second practice I recommend is energetic hygiene. I know that many of you are familiar with it and it's basically a fixed part of your self-care routine. But for those who have no clue what energetic hygiene means, let me briefly explain, okay? So energy hygiene is the practice of caring for your energetic body the way you care for your physical body. Just as you shower or brush your teeth to stay clean, energy hygiene helps you clear, protect, and balance your energy field so you don't carry around stress, other people's emotions, or heavy stagnant energy. It can include practices like grounding, cleansing your aura, setting boundaries, visualizations, meditation, breath work, conscious movements and stretches, even decluttering and releasing what isn't yours, cutting cords, letting go of toxic people in your life, and saying no more often if it feels aligned and protecting your field with intention. So good energy hygiene helps you feel lighter and clearer and more aligned in your mind, your body, and soul. So at this point, I want to mention my YouTube channel where I have a collection of healing meditations that are also infused with quantum healing frequencies, which is all about energy work. So definitely check out which meditation speaks to you and just test it out, see what it does for you, and notice how you're feeling as you're meditating, but also afterwards, okay? Next up is rest cycles. This is kind of a biggie as we're in a collective cycle that looks like work, sleep, each, repeat, right? And rest only comes on weekends, holidays, and vacations. At the same time, it's on us, it's our job to get to know our own inner season. When do I need to rest? Or when does my body ask for a rest? And when am I forcing productivity? During the day or week, when can I schedule a 30-minute nap or a rejuvenating, energizing self-care ritual? I always find it helpful to ask myself, what do I need right now? Not what do I need to do tomorrow, in a week's time, next month? No. What do I need right now in this instant? And then go from there. And then other questions that are so helpful to ask to herself as well are Am I in a season of retraction or am I in a season of creation? Am I in a season of gestation or a season of integration? Or am I in a transitional phase or a death and rebirth season of my life? These are big deals, and once we know the current season of our life, we don't have to push anymore and we can meet our needs with more ease and self-compassion. We simply can't be productive all year long. This is why burnout has become an accepted pandemic. So many people around the age of 30 already had a burnout. Isn't that enough sign that the labor market and structures have to change? What happens in the long run if we continue to unwillingly support the hustle culture? And so honoring our rest cycles and making them a fixed part of our daily life is what's going to be sustainable in the future. The last one I want to share with you guys is subconscious rewiring. Huh? What are you talking about, dude? I know, right? It sounds complicated, but here's a short explanation. Subconscious rewiring means changing the deeply rooted patterns, beliefs, and automatic responses stored in our subconscious mind. Since the subconscious runs most of our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, rewiring it allows us to release limiting beliefs like I'm not safe, or I'm not enough, or I'm too sensitive, or I'm too weak. And then it allows us to replace them with empowering ones. This is often done through tools like meditation, energy work, manifestation techniques, hypnotherapy, affirmations, subliminals, or somatic and trauma-informed practices, all of which help bypass the conscious mind and speak directly to the subconscious, creating lasting change. But it's also important to note that our body is just as much a subconscious part as the mind, because our body has its own consciousness. So these four holistic approaches combined create a lasting sense of safety and calm for the body, mind, soul, and energy. So it's not just temporary relief, it's a powerful way of conscious living, especially for sensitive leaders, HSPs, and empaths. As I mentioned earlier, I'm building an incredible safe living and breathing ecosystem that includes these four approaches, but where I also go in depth with further approaches. That I didn't talk about today because at the end of the day, we're talking multidimensional here, right? And there is not enough time to put everything into one episode. So now I want to touch on why breathing alone or quote, just breathe, isn't enough, and why some of us are still struggling until deeper practices are applied. With our breath alone, we can do a lot. Like really, people who are unconscious of their breath have no idea what they're missing out on. Now, I want you to imagine you're about to go to a job interview, okay? You're super nervous, and it took a couple of months to find that job to refine your CV and to set up an interview. You've been, let's say, jobless for years or months, and now the time has finally arrived to land that potential job. You're calm and collected until you get ready for the interview. You start coloring different scenarios in your head, and slowly you become nervous. Now, adrenaline and cortisol are activated and released into your body. Your nervous system's triggered survival program, it kicks in and your breath becomes shallow. You ignore it and walk nervously and impatiently back and forth, and you pour yourself a cup of coffee, hyping up your nervous system even more and fueling your stress hormones that are already circulating in your body. Now it's time to make yourself on your way, and you notice that you're in your head this whole time. You arrive at the location where the interview takes place, your heartbeat is elevated, your hands and armpits are sweating, and your breath is shallow and doesn't go further than your chest. Now you kind of feel dizzy and nauseous, and you're getting worried, almost fearful, but at the same time, you know that you've been waiting for this opportunity for so long. And maybe you've already gone to many other interviews. Okay, now that you have that scenario in your mind and you're also kind of feeling it in your body, what I'm describing, let me ask you: if I were to tell you, just breathe, would that do any good for you? Would you even hear it? Or would it be more helpful if we both took a second to hug each other, to take conscious, deep breaths together? And me telling you affirming, encouraging words. Would it help if I just sat next to you? And here's the thing: if I was just as nervous as you while at the same time trying to comfort you, your nervous system would pick up on that. This is why, in situations like these, the most beneficial moment we can give to ourselves is to be with someone whose nervous system is fully regulated and attuned to yours. If my heartbeat was super chill and my own breath slow and steady, your body would pick up on that and imitate it. This is the reason why we get so stressed when we're surrounded by stressed-out people. We amplify that which we are feeling in the office, at our workplace, at home, wherever we are really. So it's so good to ask ourselves with whom we want to surround ourselves with. Are the people around me contributing to my well-being, or are they causing more anxiety? Is the environment I'm working in mentally, emotionally, and psychologically supportive? Or is it a blunt, cold, uninviting place? Is my own thinking and self-talk positive and uplifting, or is it negative and diminishing? Just to give you something to think about. And I'm sharing these questions because it tells us so much about how we navigate our day-to-day, especially when it comes to our self-care practices that shouldn't be yet another task to take off our to-do list, right? But rather should support and expand our lives, right? Now, in order for quote, just breathe to work, we must ensure an environment and relationships where we truly can breathe. A place and people we feel comfortable enough with to let our guards down and to truly breathe. But not just the place and people, but more importantly, the place within and the person we are. And this takes deeper practices applied on a daily basis. We prevent so much stress and illness when we know how to take care of our body, our energy, our relationships, and the places we frequent the most. So with deeper practices, we feel lighter, happier, easier, freer, vitalized, energized, empowered, what else, uplifted and connected, and so forth. And now imagine bringing these energies with you everywhere you go. It's a life-changing game changer. And it truly doesn't take much to start practicing. Five to ten minutes a day is a great start. It doesn't have to be a 30-minute meditation or an hour-long yoga class. It can be as short as a couple of breaths or as long as you feel comfortable doing it. This is the reason why I'm building a safe living online space where you can choose which practice to practice. And just by trying out different options, your nervous system will feel much safer and your body calmer after only a couple of minutes. I shared with my newsletter tribe that the space isn't quite ready yet, so I warmly invite you to stay tuned. My newsletter tribe will be the first to know before I share it here on the podcast and on the socials. So if you already want to get started, you can subscribe to the monthly Soul Letter where you receive tips for working with your sensitivity and energy and the free energy reading of the month. And if you want to dive straight into practicing, definitely check out the healing meditations over on my YouTube channel where I upload weekly meditations that are layered with soul faju and quantum healing frequencies and binaural beats. The newest meditation is for the month of October, which is part of the soul renewal series, and it's about letting go and surrendering gracefully. The second to newest meditation is for those who are currently navigating a cold, the flu, or are in burnout recovery. So definitely go ahead and check them out. Browse through the other meditations and don't forget to subscribe. You can find both links in the show notes, and I'll probably even record a healing meditation that accompanies this episode. So definitely stay tuned for that as well. And yeah. Now let me emphasize that these day-to-day practices work because they meet your whole being, not just an aspect of you. It's not just about reducing weight and eating less and working out more. It's about the holistic and multidimensional approach to our overall well-being that considers every aspect of our being, which includes the body, the energy, the emotions, and the soul, and so much more. Alright, so today we talked about why just breathe isn't per se wrong, but it's incomplete for sensitive nervous systems. I gently invite you to reflect on what tools feel safe and supportive for you and which ones you can start applying today. If this resonated, you'll love what I'm building, a space designed exactly for sensitive, empathic, and neurodivergent people to reset, align, and return to their rhythm of peace. Check out the links to explore how you can get started with caring for your special superpower, your sensitivity. Okay. Okay doks, my loves, thank you for spending this time with me today. My hope is that you leave feeling a little lighter, a little calmer and understood, and more connected to your own sovereign rhythm. If this episode spoke to you, I'd love for you to share it with someone who needs this reminder too. And if you're ready to go deeper, you're warmheartedly invited to join the priority wait list for the safe living space for sensitive souls to reset, heal, and grow at their own pace that I'm currently building. Until next time, thank you for sharing the space together. Take excellent care.
