Do you ever feel stuck, numb, or shut down — like you just can’t move forward no matter how hard you try? That’s the freeze response, a survival state of the nervous system that can leave you feeling disconnected, dissociated, and trapped in stress.

In this guided meditation, you’ll learn how to shift out of freeze in just minutes using a gentle somatic practice. This short but powerful exercise will help you reconnect with your body, bring your nervous system alive, and restore a sense of safety, presence, and flow.

This video is perfect if you struggle with:

Feeling frozen, shut down, or overwhelmed

Chronic stress, trauma, or nervous system dysregulation

Dissociation or disconnection from your body

A need for a quick reset to feel more alive and grounded

👉 Tip: This practice works best when your freeze sensations are mild to moderate, and when you can safely tolerate them.
