Sommerville Johnston brought a rubber band to this recording. Stretched, it is the discomfort zone. Pulled further, it snaps. How much stress resilience do you have before you snap?
Sommerville Johnston is a licensed professional counselor, somatic experiencing practitioner, wilderness guide, and founder of Aspen Roots Collective. She joins Anna Levesque, former professional whitewater kayaker and founder of Mind Body Paddle, on The Discomfort Zone Podcast to talk about growing stress resilience and regulating your nervous system, on and off the water.
If you've been running at a higher level of stress than usual, this one is for you.
In this episode:
The difference between the stress that is growing you and the stress that is about to take you out
The back body practice for nervous system regulation you can do while you listen
Why Anna stepped back from hard whitewater mid career, and what was different when she came back to Class IV
Strategies for not letting perfectionism run or ruin you
