Burnout Prevention & Stress Management
Week 2: Stress & Regulation
Stress isn't only something we experience in our minds. The body is part of the conversation.
In Week 2 of this four-week series with the City of Raleigh, we'll explore how the nervous system responds to stress and why we can sometimes feel overwhelmed, restless, shut down, or simply unable to settle—even when we know we need a break.
We'll introduce the window of tolerance and explore practical ways to recognize your own patterns and support greater regulation.
Each 60-minute session blends brief, accessible education with gentle movement, breathwork, mindfulness, guided relaxation, and reflection.
This Week: Stress & Regulation
We'll explore how your nervous system responds to everyday stress and practice simple tools that can help you return to a greater sense of steadiness.
You'll leave with a short regulation practice you can use at work, at home, or in moments when stress begins to build.
