Simple daily practices
to bring you home to calm and connection.
What is this?
Most of us live in a world that pulls us out of ourselves — fast, busy, overwhelming, and full of demands.
Anchored is a gentle invitation to do the opposite.For 18 days, you'll receive a short, simple prompt in your inbox — a practice that takes less than 5 minutes and helps shift you into the ventral vagal state of your nervous system: the place of calm, connection, safety, and possibility.
Because when we change our state, we change our story — about ourselves, others, and the world.
What you'll receive
- One short email per day
- A tiny nervous system practice (takes under 5 minutes)
- Tools to gently shift from stress or disconnection into presence and connection
- An invitation to tune inward and remember the wisdom that lives in your own embodied being
Un-challenging
This isn’t a challenge in the usual sense — there’s nothing to push through, perfect, or achieve. That’s why I'm calling it an Un-Challenge. It’s an invitation to gently be with yourself each day, not to do more. With just a few minutes of simple, supportive practice, you’ll explore what it feels like to shift into a state of groundedness, connection, and ease — without pressure. Think of it as a soft landing place for your nervous system — a gentle return to yourself, moment by moment.
“The ventral vagal state is the place of safety, connection, and engagement — the state that supports health, growth, and restoration.”
Deb Dana
Why it matters
Small daily practices make a big difference. When we regularly return to a regulated state, we:
- Build capacity to deal with stress, be with our emotions, and hold complexity
- Increase resilience, creativity, and grounded confidence
- Deepen connection with self and others
- Feel more empowered and less overwhelmed in everyday life
This is for you if
You long for more steadiness, ease and clarity in your days
You want simple tools rooted in nervous system science (Polyvagal Theory)
You’ve got a lot on your plate and need something small and doable
You’re curious about somatic or trauma-informed work — but don’t know where to start
A daily reset that brings more ease, presence, and joy
It’s free.
It’s gentle.
It might just change your day.
This Un-Challenge isn’t about doing more — it’s an invitation into being. Each simple practice helps you return to yourself… and sometimes the smallest shifts make the biggest difference.
Why ventral vagal matters
- Greater sense of groundedness
- Improved connection with yourself and others
- Access to creativity, curiosity, and joy
- Clearer thinking, improved focus and better decision-making
- More capacity to feel and process emotions
- Steadiness in the face of stress or challenge
- Over time, a more regulated, resilient nervous system
Small shifts, big impact.
“When we are in a ventral vagal state, our body is in a place of calm and connection, ready to engage with the world.”
