Your Brain Has a Stress Reset Button – Here Is How to Turn It Off

At my worst, I couldn’t even let my parents go to the grocery store without calling them and asking when they'd be back.I wasn’t a kid. I was 18. I'd just come back from traveling abroad alone. But suddenly, even leaving my house felt impossible.I kept trying to make the fear go away – breathing techniques, cold water, supplements. I wanted the symptoms gone. But the harder I tried, the more my brain seemed to double down: “He's panicking – this must be dangerous.”Until I learned this: there’s a part of your brain – literally – that can reset your stress response. But here’s the trick... You can’t access it by calming down. You access it by acting differently while still feeling afraid.In this episode, I’m breaking down what that “reset button” really is, why coping techniques can backfire, and how repetition – not reassurance – teaches your brain it’s safe.It’s not easy. It feels backwards. But it works.Let’s show your brain there’s nothing to run from.
