A Nervous System Reset for Women in Burnout
You’ve Done All the Things, But Still Feel Stuck
If you feel exhausted but unable to rest, calm but constantly on edge, or productive yet deeply depleted, your body is not failing you. It is responding to chronic stress.
Burnout is not a mindset problem. It is a physiological state driven by nervous system overload, disrupted stress hormones, and a loss of internal safety.
Our Rooted and Regulated Signature Program is a guided nervous system regulation reset designed to support women experiencing burnout through holistic, functional-medicine-based care that addresses stress at its root.
When Burnout Becomes the Body’s Default State
Many women seeking support describe feeling wired but tired. They wake up exhausted yet feel unable to slow down. Rest does not feel restorative, and stress feels constant even when life appears manageable.
Common experiences include:
• Persistent fatigue with a racing mind
• Difficulty relaxing or feeling calm
• Sleep disruption or early morning waking
• Emotional reactivity or numbness
• Brain fog and reduced focus
• Feeling disconnected from the body
symptoms are all signs of a dysregulated stress response rather than a lack of resilience.
Nervous System Regulation as the Foundation of Recovery
True burnout recovery begins with nervous system regulation. When your body remains in a chronic state of survival, healing cannot occur. Chronic stress alters your stress response signaling, disrupts cortisol rhythms, and affects hormone regulation. Over time, this leads to emotional exhaustion, metabolic slowdown, and reduced stress tolerance.
Our Rooted and Regulated program focuses on restoring safety within the nervous system so your body can shift out of survival mode and into repair
We work with your physiology rather than pushing against it.
How Chronic Stress Impacts Hormones and Energy
Your nervous and endocrine (hormone) systems are deeply interconnected. When stress becomes chronic, your body adapts in ways that conserve energy but reduce vitality.
Key patterns we commonly see include:
- Disrupted cortisol rhythms contributing to fatigue and wired but tired states
- Increased need for adrenal fatigue support
- Impaired hormone regulation
- Changes in metabolism associated with metabolic burnout recovery
Understanding these patterns allows for targeted stress response rebalancing rather than generalized advice to rest more or try harder.
Rooted & Regulated is Designed for Women who:
- Feel chronically stressed or burnt out
- Identify as high functioning but internally depleted
- Feel wired but tired most days
- Have tried rest or mindset work without lasting relief
- Want natural burnout solutions rooted in physiology

The program follows a structured yet flexible approach
Phase 1: Comprehensive Assessment (Weeks 1–4)
- In‑depth intake and nervous system assessment
- Identification of stress response patterns and burnout drivers
- Complete functional hormone salivary cortisol and metabolic testing
- Education on how chronic stress impacts hormones, metabolism, and emotional regulation
Phase 2: Stabilization and Safety Building (Weeks 4-5)
- Personalized nervous system regulation plan based on current capacity
- Gentle vagus nerve regulation practices introduced gradually
- Support for blood sugar balance and cortisol stability
- Focus on calming the system without overwhelm
- Targeted nutraceuticals for hormone balance
Phase 3: Stress Response Rebalancing (Weeks 6–10)
- Targeted support for adrenal fatigue and chronic stress relief
- Continued nervous system regulation practices with increased consistency
- Support for sleep, energy, mood, and mental clarity
- Building tolerance for stress without returning to burnout patterns
Phase 4: Integration & Sustainability (Weeks 11–16)
- Creation of a personalized long-term nervous system care plan
- Identification of early burnout and stress warning signs
- Ongoing strategies for chronic stress prevention
- Transition planning for continued nervous system support
- Clear next steps beyond the program
What Patients Commonly Experience:
While every nervous system is unique, many patients report:
- Improved ability to rest and recover
- More mental clarity
- Weight loss
- Improved libido
- Reduced stress reactivity
- More stable energy throughout the day
- Improved sleep quality
These changes come from restoring regulation rather than managing symptoms.
