From Survival Mode to True Calm: My Journey with Nano Jellies

raisingcleanLeave a comment

For the longest time, I didn’t realize how much of my life I was spending in a constant state of fight or flight. I was always anxious, overwhelmed, and totally exhausted—but I thought that was just how life was supposed to feel with small children. I had normalized the chaos in my body and mind, brushing off the symptoms because they were so consistent that they felt normal.

Every little thing set me off—tight deadlines, noisy kids, unexpected plans, even just the overwhelm of a busy to-do list. My heart would race, my thoughts would spiral, and my body felt tense all the time. I was stuck on high alert, living in survival mode without even realizing it.

Then something shifted.

I discovered nano jellies—and while I didn’t expect a huge change at first, I can now confidently say that they were a complete game-changer for my nervous system. These tiny but mighty wellness tools helped me regulate in a way I didn’t even know I needed. For the first time in a long time, my mind felt clear. My anxious thoughts quieted. My body relaxed. I wasn’t just coping anymore—I was healing.

It was like my whole system finally exhaled.

Now, I feel like I can respond to life instead of constantly reacting to it. I’m not as quick to snap, spiral, or shut down. There’s a new sense of calm and control that’s become my new normal, and it’s something I never want to live without again. It’s not about being stress-free (because, let’s be honest, life is still life), but about having tools that support my body and mind so I can navigate the hard moments with more grace and peace.

If you’ve been living in that anxious, go-go-go state too—please know that it doesn’t have to be that way. There is a better way to feel. You can feel safe in your body again. You can find your calm. And I would love to share more with you if you’re curious.

You don’t have to do this alone. Let’s talk. ❤️

Living with Anxiety

I was asked recently to write up something with natural remedies for anxiety and I thought it was a fabulous idea. I suffer from anxiety and I know so many others who do as well. There are actually several things that can be done to help combat anxiety without going straight to a medication that will likely have side effects you now have to deal with. So, let’s dive in…

Things you can do:

Fitness ( Move Your Body) – Yoga and Zumba are my favorite physical activities to reduce anxiety but there are a gazillion options. Try things out until you find what works for you. It’s not a one size fits all.

Meditation or Prayer – Whatever you call it. Just get silent with yourself every day for at least 10 minutes. You will notice a difference. I am significantly more on edge on days I skip my meditation.

Practice Gratitude – It is impossible to feel anxious and grateful at the same time. I like to list 10 things I’m grateful for from my day each night before I go to sleep. Doing it daily requires you to think of the little things and rewind through your day in your head specifically looking for good. This is wonderful for the soul.

Get some sleep – Most adults need a regular 7 to 8 hours of sleep per night. Lack of sleep can lead to things such as increased stress, anxiety, reduced immune system function, increased blood pressure, and a whole host of other problems. When we practice relaxation and get enough sleep, these things can be significantly reduced. Quality sleep also helps to improve and renew your skin. Before bed, be sure to wash your face and hydrate well. I personally love Crunchi Charcoal Bar and Crunchi Nightlight moisturizer. Practice some deep breathing exercises and add a little lavender oil to your inner wrists. This routine helps me sleep like a baby!!

Things you can consume:

Ashwagandha – Importat Note: Not all herbs are created equal, and not all are safe for use by the general population. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should refrain from the use of Ashwagandha powder due to its ability to cause issues to the mother and baby, which can be fatal. People with autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis and type 1 diabetes should also avoid ashwagandha unless authorized by a doctor. 

Here are my favorite varieties: 

Gold Gummies (super tasty): https://bit.ly/3jig3ch

Standard Process (swallow tablet): https://bit.ly/3jilA2M

Earthley (liquid herb option): https://bit.ly/3ksPkcj

CBD – Green compass is what I’ve used in the past. Usda certified organic, grown in the USA by 6th generation farmers and every bottle has a QR code so you can scan and see the full lab results (tested by an third party) for that specific batch of cbd.

Do you have any tried and true tricks for helping with anxiety? I’d love to hear them!
