Let me guess: You’re wired but tired. Always overwhelmed. Snapping one minute, crying the next. You’re wondering if it’s your hormones—or if you’re just falling apart.
Here’s what most women don’t realize: Hormonal chaos often starts with nervous system dysregulation.

Stress hijacks your endocrine system. And until you feel safe in your body again, your hormones will keep firing off signals of imbalance.
But there is a way back.
How Stress Hijacks Your Hormones
When your body perceives stress (real or imagined), it releases cortisol and adrenaline. Over time, this chronic activation:
Suppresses reproductive hormones (estrogen, progesterone)
Alters your cycle
Triggers anxiety, mood swings, cravings
You can’t supplement your way out of this. You have to regulate your system.
Nervous System Regulation 101
Nervous system healing means creating a sense of safety and slowness in your body. Tools like:
Somatic movement
Breathwork
Yoga nidra
Grounding rituals …teach your body that it’s okay to soften again.
The Ayurveda–Somatic Connection
Ayurveda gives us the WHY, and somatics give us the HOW.
Ayurveda explains how Vata imbalance creates anxiety and dryness
Somatic tools calm Vata through movement and felt sense
Together, they’re a powerhouse for healing burnout.
Client Example: “I Didn’t Know I Was Living in Fight-or-Flight”
One client told me: “I didn’t even realize how disconnected I was until I did one breathwork session. I cried. I exhaled. I felt home.”
When your body relaxes, hormones recalibrate.
Simple Daily Practices to Try:
Legs up the wall after work
Box breathing before your period
Grounding walk with no phone in the morning
Oil massage before bed
Start small. Stay consistent.
