140- From Funk to Flow// What It Is Trying To Tell You & How to Reset Your Mind, Body & Energy

Pelvic Floor, Core & More | Healing Beyond Kegels: Core Rehab, Prenatal Fitness, Birth Prep, Postpartum Recovery, Nervous System Regulation, and Holistic Self-Care for Moms

We all know that feeling — when your motivation disappears, your energy dips, and even the simplest tasks feel heavy. You’re not lazy. You’re not broken. You’re just in a funk.

In this episode, Dr. Desiree dives into what’s really going on when you feel off, disconnected, or unmotivated — and how to get out of that stuck state without pushing or shaming yourself. You’ll learn how your nervous system, emotions, and energy are all connected, and how to create tiny shifts that bring you back into flow.

This isn’t about forcing productivity — it’s about honoring your body’s signals, restoring balance, and reconnecting to yourself.

🌿 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

✨ Why funks happen — and what your body might actually be trying to tell you.
✨ The science behind being “stuck” in freeze mode or dysregulation.
✨ What not to do when you’re in a funk (hint: it’s not more pressure or guilt).
✨ Simple body-led practices to reset your mind and energy.
✨ How movement, breathwork, and environment shifts help you feel grounded again.
✨ The importance of nervous system regulation in breaking the burnout cycle.

💡 Top Takeaways:

💫 A funk is feedback, not failure — your body is asking for something.
💫 You can’t think your way out; you have to feel your way through.
💫 Micro-movements, grounding, and gentle action rebuild momentum.
💫 Self-compassion and small steps are the fastest way back to alignment.

🧘 Try These Mini Resets:

• Step outside barefoot for 2 minutes. Feel your feet on the ground.
  

• Place your hand on your heart + belly and exhale slowly.
  

• Move your body in a way that feels good, not punishing.
  

• Change your environment — open a window, shift lighting, or play new music.
  

• Write down 3 things that feel light, easy, or joyful today.
  

🎧 Listen If You’re Feeling:

• Mentally or emotionally exhausted.
  

• Stuck in freeze mode or burnout.
  

• Like you’ve “lost your spark” or motivation.
  

• Physically depleted or disconnected from your body.

✨ Remember:
Healing isn’t always about doing more.
Sometimes, it’s about slowing down, listening, and letting your energy rise again — one grounded breath at a time. 💛
