Overstimulation Nation and Navigating the Holidays

In this solo episode, I discuss all things overstimulation, anger, and how to navigate the often-triggering holiday season in a mindful and healthy way. I unpack the confusing dichotomy of wanting to spend time with your family but not always being your best self when you’re with them, my recent overstimulated Thanksgiving and how I handled it, and where I believe my overstimulation comes from. I also discuss mourning the “childhood” holiday experience and adjusting to being an adult during the holidays, which tools have helped me the most with overstimulation, and how important it is to communicate your needs with your loved ones.     Key Takeaway / Points: On wanting to spend time with your family while not always being the best version of yourself when you’re with them My Thanksgiving experience with overstimulation and how I handled it Where my overstimulation comes from On reverting back to teenage selves while in our childhood homes On mourning the childhood holiday experience Tools that help me the most with overstimulation On the importance of communicating your needs to your loved ones   Links: Listen to the previous episode, Overstimulation and Anxiety Induced Anger, here Find my noise-canceling headphones here Listen to the Brown Noise link here Order the weighted stuffed animal I ordered here Purchase my coloring book and pencils here     Order Athletic Greens and get a FREE 1 year supply Vitamind D AND 5 travel packs here: www.athleticgreens.com/fff   Follow me: Instagram: @cameronoaksrogers Website: freckledfoodie.com TikTok: @cameronoaksrogers Twitter: @freckledfoodie Youtube: Cameron Rogers / Freckled Foodie Pinterest: Freckled Foodie   Creative Lead: Amelie Yeager Produced by Dear Media. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
