What if your brain fog, migraines, constant colds, or exhaustion weren’t random…but actually your body’s way of protecting you?
So many ADHDers tell me they feel like their body keeps betraying them — but often, those symptoms are just messages we’ve been taught to ignore.
When we keep pushing through, we reinforce sneaky beliefs like:
❌ “My needs don’t matter.”
❌ “I’m too much.”
❌ “Everyone else can cope, so I must be the problem.”
Sound familiar?
In this week’s episode of The Limitless Series on the Calm Your Nervous System podcast, my client Calum shares how he went from constant burnout to feeling calm, energised, and grounded.
He’s now travelling again (without crashing), saying no to people-pleasing, and actually enjoying movement, not forcing it.
Because when you stop trying to out-think your body and start listening to it, everything changes.
Your nervous system isn’t the problem. It’s the solution.
