Pause: The Power of Pause: Techniques for Resetting Stress and Anxiety [Pause 64]

Welcome to a calming episode of “I Thought I Was Over This,” where Dr. Kimber, a licensed clinical psychologist and somatic experiencing practitioner, guides us through a gentle journey of grounding and regulation. 

In this episode, Dr. Kimber invites listeners to settle in, become aware of their environment, and practice mindful breathing and self-soothing techniques designed to reset the nervous system. 

She shares insights from psychological research—including the principles of dual awareness and polyvagal theory—helping us recognize how our bodies respond to stress and how we can gently return to a state of ease. 

We’re treated to a reflective reading of the poem “The Work of Happiness” by May Sarton, weaving together themes of presence, growth, and inner peace. 

Whether you’re looking to slow down, re-center, or simply cultivate more happiness in your day, this episode offers a thoughtful space for self-care and renewal.
