The Morning Anxiety Cycle and How to Break It

Some mornings hit before you even open your eyes.

You’re not thinking yet – your body is. There’s a pulse of dread, a rush of energy that doesn’t feel like yours, and suddenly you’re not waking up… you’re bracing.

It catches you off guard. Nothing obvious sets it off. But still, it shows up. Morning after morning.

This episode takes a close look at morning anxiety – what it actually is, why it feels so physical, and how your body’s natural wake-up process can get tangled up with a nervous system that’s been on high alert for too long.

If mornings feel like a false start – like your system is already in overdrive before you’ve had a chance to exhale – there’s likely more going on beneath the surface than you realize.

Understanding that is the first step. The rest of it? We get into that, too.

Press play.
