How can I get this brain of mine to breathe? Simplifying for the sake of our nervous system with Jodi Wilson
Episode 368
Monday, 23 February, 2026
The “nervous system” has been mentioned a lot lately and for good reason! Life is busy and our body wasn’t designed to be dealing with this level of stress 24/7. So today, we speak to Jodi Wilson, bestselling author, yoga teacher and postpartum doula, about her latest book, A Brain that Breathes: essential habits for an overwhelming world. We discuss… What even is the nervous system and how can we slow down? How the constant mental load, multitasking and being chronically online all contribute to an overwhelmed nervous system Small daily habits that we can use to help calm ourselves down (the real self-care!) The ‘switch cost effect’ and how it is really impacting mothers Children’s innate ability to be present Our biological need to rest in order for our brain to function productively How ‘the infinite scroll’ and picking up our phones keeps us in fight/flight 5 strategies to use when you’re overwhelmed Links mentioned in this episode: Read Jodi’s book here Find Jodi on Substack here or on Instagram at @practisingimplicity This episode is proudly sponsored by Tonies.
