Shake for Stress Resilience Program
Befriend your nervous system, increase your stress tolerance
Living requires a constant dance with stress
Every day is a samba of deadlines, tough decisions, endless to do lists. The eternal struggle to balance work and family, big projects and dreams to take off the ground.
The consequences are well known:
disrupted sleep, lack of focus, a racing mind, inability to stay calm and present, feeling tired or completely drained and unable to manage our emotions, often being reactive and saying or doing things we regret later.
stress often flips a switch, taking you on an unconscious rollercoaster ride
Meet Hyperarousal, the turbocharged mode—super alert, anxious, and on edge.
And then there's Hypoarousal, the snooze button—numb, unresponsive, and avoidant.
These are your autonomic nervous system primal reactions, like a zebra scanning for danger on the savannah. The catch? You're often unaware when you flip that switch. You feel the unease but don't know how to reset it.
that unease permeates ...
your body
racing heart, shallow breating, muscle tension,
fatigue, mental fog
your thoughts
"One mistake, and my career's ruined."
"I'm powerless; nothing will change."
"Mistakes are unacceptable."
"I mess things up; I'm so stupid."
"I'll just ignore this; I can't handle it now."
"I'll never be as successful as them."
"I should've reached my goals by now."
your emotions
anger, frustration, fear, anxiety, helplessness, shame, guilt
Through repetition and incomplete recovery, especially following traumatic events, your body learns a stress pattern that becomes deeply ingrained, literally stored in your body. This can create a cycle where you feel trapped on a rollercoaster, attempting to rationalize your way out, suppress emotions, and distract yourself instead of experiencing full recovery.
effective recovery
The profound connection between our physical sensations, thoughts, and emotions is a fundamental part of human experience.
Effective recovery leverages this intricate web, allowing us to understand our nervous system like a close friend. It helps us recognize when we feel 'danger' and guides our body back to 'safety' through self-regulation. This process also involves reshaping our beliefs and accepting our emotions.
Fine-tuning the dance of hyperarousal, hypoarousal, and regulation boosts your stress resilience. It's your ticket to feeling at home in your body, riding the waves of emotions, and tackling life's curveballs with remarkable ease.

Hello! I'm a somatic coach specializing in emotional regulation. My passion lies in helping individuals nurture their emotional well-being and confidently navigate life's challenges.
Drawing from my personal journey through childhood trauma and later, burnout, I've gained deep insights into the impact of unresolved stress and tension on overall well-being. I find great fulfillment in using tools like TRE and Ontological Coaching to assist my clients in tapping into their body's innate wisdom, enabling them to release stress and restore equilibrium. If you're looking to embark on a path toward greater emotional wellness, I'm here to guide you.

what clients have to say
I was seeking tools to manage stress, as I had been feeling quite emotionally drained over a long time. Thanks to Amanda's expertise, I now feel much more relaxed and confident in handling stress. I was surprised by the level of stress I had been subjecting my body to before. I've learned what 'normal' should feel like. Amanda's knowledge and safe, well-tuned methods allowed me to fully embrace TRE.

I had been fatigued and restless, but the workshop helped me regain energy and feel more relaxed, especially during sleep. I have a better sense of balance now, possibly because I'm calmer. Amanda's attentive, listening approach was a game-changer. Don't hesitate to do something good for yourself!
R.L., female
I was tired and drained, but after the workshop, I wake up refreshed and clear-minded. I can think through daily tasks more easily and feel calmer. Even on busy days, I have more energy in the morning! Amanda's attentive approach to each individual's experience is remarkable. Joining the workshop is a no-brainer; the benefits are almost immediate! It's simple practices with profound, lasting changes. You can't go wrong with this!
J., female
I was stressed and couldn't think clearly, but after the workshop, my mind is clearer, my mood is better, and I'm making decisions more confidently. I've also learned how much I tend to overthink. I knew it was there, but I didn't realize how much it held me back until now.
