“If you feel anxious all the time… it might not be you.
It might be the world your nervous system is trying to survive in.”

In this episode of Psychology & the Soul™, we explore what it means to live in a world that never turns off — and how constant information, pressure, and uncertainty are impacting your nervous system in real time.

You’re not broken.
You’re responding.

We are living in a time of global dysregulation — where anxiety, overwhelm, burnout, and emotional shutdown are becoming the norm. But what many people don’t realize is that these are not personality flaws… they are nervous system responses.

Hosted by Kellee White, LMFT, and Dr. Shirley Impellizzeri, PhD, this episode breaks down:

✨ What emotional regulation actually is
✨ How the nervous system responds to stress (fight, flight, freeze)
✨ Why anxiety is increasing in today’s world
✨ The impact of fear-based media and constant stimulation
✨ How to tell what you’re feeling is yours — and what isn’t
✨ Science-backed tools to regulate your nervous system
✨ Mindfulness practices grounded in psychology and awareness

You’ll also learn simple, practical techniques you can use immediately to come back to center — including breathwork, grounding, emotional labeling, and awareness-based practices.

This episode is not about fixing yourself.
It’s about understanding what your body is trying to tell you.

So if you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or shut down…

Pause.
Take a breath.
And ask yourself:

“Is this mine… or am I carrying more than I need to?”
