Are you so busy managing the holidays that you're missing the precious moments happening right in front of you? You're there physically, but not really present—thinking about the next thing on your list, worrying if everything will go right, or feeling so overwhelmed you're actually numb. In this episode, I'm sharing a simple one-minute somatic practice called "Pause and Savor" that helps your nervous system actually absorb those beautiful moments so they don't just pass by unnoticed. **What You'll Learn:** ✨ Why stress makes it nearly impossible to be present (even during special moments) ✨ How trauma and overwhelm affect your ability to register positive experiences ✨ The neuroscience behind why good moments "slide off" while stress sticks ✨ A 4-step practice you can use multiple times throughout your day ✨ How to rewire your brain to notice and embody goodness **The Pause and Savor Practice:** 1. Notice the moment and name it 2. Pause your body—ground and breathe 3. Feel where the goodness lives in your body 4. Savor it for 10-20 seconds This isn't about being perfectly present all the time. It's about catching yourself when you disconnect and practicing coming back. That's what nervous system regulation is all about. Try this practice at least three times today and notice what shifts. 💫 **Ready to go deeper?** Join the Somatic Wellness Collective for: • On-demand somatic healing classes • Live Q&A sessions with Dr. Christine • Movement classes • Integration workbooks • Supportive community **CONNECT WITH ME:** Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/everyday-simple-somatics-with-dr-christine-baker/id1788150711 Spotify Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/0SuKw9Ocl4nvagHdIViZL4 SWC Helper's Circle: https://stan.store/drcbtherapy/p/somatic-wellness-collective-helpers-circle SWC Essenials: https://stan.store/drcbtherapy/p/somatic-wellness-collective-the-essentials-dwa48x7b #SomaticHealing #HolidayStress #OverwhelmedMom #Mindfulness #NervousSystemRegulation #TraumaRecovery #BePresent #HolidayAnxiety #MomLife
