The Science Behind Morning Anxiety and How to Fix It

➡️ Ready to recover? Apply to join

Morning anxiety can feel like your body hits the panic switch as soon as you wake up. You’re feeling feelings of impending doom, heart palpitations, and/or panic attacks. Sometimes it feels like you’ve been hit by a truck.

I know how convincing that can be. Because I’ve lived through that loop myself.

So what I want you to know is that nothing’s wrong with your body. It’s a sensitized nervous system reacting to a normal cortisol rise as if there’s danger.

In this episode, I explain why this happens and what actually helps your system reset.

I talk about:

  • what the cortisol awakening response really is
  • how a sensitized nervous system misreads it
  • why it's not a good idea to fight the sensations
  • the practice that teaches your body safety again

Tune in to learn how to end the morning battles you never signed up for.

Key Takeaways:

  • Intro (00:00)
  • What's really going on? (01:02)
  • Cortisol Awakening Response (01:50)
  • Why is your nervous system sensitized? (03:51)
  • How to overcome morning anxiety (05:44)
  • Your nervous system learns safety again (08:47)
