How to Calm an Overloaded Nervous System

I’m going to keep this simple.

When someone comes to me overwhelmed, the mind wants answers.

But first, I want presence.

So I said:
Just look into the camera.

No talking.
No explaining.
Just look.

Then I asked for the hands — right, then left.

Slowly.

Not for prediction.
For diagnosis.

When the Lines Are Faint

I asked: can you see the lines in your hands?

Not much.

Some visible. Some negligible.

And I told her what I was seeing:

You are dissolving.

When dissolution is happening, old imprints loosen. Even the “lines” can feel less defined — not just on the palm, but in identity.

This is not a problem.

It’s a phase.

Slowly. Slowly. Slowly.
You will be free.

And when you are free, life reorganizes. A new destiny gets written — not by force, but by alignment.

One warning here:

Don’t become an obstacle to your own soul’s journey.

This Is Not the Person’s Journey

Most people believe: “This is my journey.”

But the “person” is only a name, a story, a past.

What is actually moving is deeper.

The soul’s movement inside you.

And what creates suffering is simple:

You identify as body.
You identify as mind.
Then you resist.

You resist guidance.
You resist downloads.
You resist inner change.

So you stay stuck in the same loop.

My work is not to entertain the mind.

My work is to free you energetically.

Some people feel that freedom quickly.

If you resist, it takes longer.

Before Questions, Trust

I told her: you can ask questions.

But when I answer, you have to trust the answer.

Because I’m not giving you a “mental answer.”

I’m giving you an energetic answer.

Then she went into the topic many seekers fall into:

alien races, star beings, dimensions.

So I brought it back to reality.

Energy: Simple, Not Fantasy

I said: there is no need for complicated stories.

Everything is energy.

Energy takes form.
Different forms create different matter.

Like water.

Water can be ice.
Water can be liquid.
Water can be vapor.

Same reality.
Different expression.

When heat changes, form changes.

This is nature.

In the same way, you are a field of energy — with an electromagnetic field — and the body you see is only a small part of what you are.

Even scientifically, if you look at atoms, you’ll find mostly space — and patterns of energy.

The mind turns this into mythology.

But energy is not something to debate.

It is something to feel.

Stop Worshipping Imagination

People create images. Then they worship the image.

They feed attention into a form until it becomes “real” for them.

But imagination can build anything.

A being with twelve hands.
A story with infinite worlds.

That doesn’t mean it’s truth.

The mind can create a whole universe.

And if you are not careful, you become a victim of the mind.

A victim of the matrix.

To come out of illusion, you don’t need to run away physically.

You come out energetically first.

Then you start seeing things as they are.

A Simple Practice: Mirror, Eyes, Silence

I gave her a practice that is small, but powerful.

Not mystical.

Direct.

Every day, five minutes:

  • bring a mirror in front of you
  • look into your own eyes
  • keep a little distance
  • keep looking
  • then close your eyes
  • go inside
  • look for thoughts
  • notice what is watching

When she said, “I am only a reflection,” I confirmed:

Yes. What you see is reflection.

This practice is not for philosophy.

It’s for stability.

And whatever you notice, write it down.

Not in your head.

On paper.

The Question: “Am I the Only One Who’s Real?”

This is a common phase.

When someone touches pure awareness for a moment, they can feel:

“Other people feel like reflections.”
“My thoughts manifest fast.”
“I feel like I’m alone in my own reality.”

So I told her plainly:

Yes — thoughts happen.

You are awareness.

But you are not established in it.

You taste it. Then you fall back into mind.

So the path is not more questions.

The path is practice.

I will establish you in that center — but you must do the sadhana without constantly arguing with it.

Questions will arise. Write them down.

Ask only the burning ones in session.

The Grounding Part: Work, Not Thinking

Then I gave her something very practical.

When the nervous system is unstable, sitting and thinking is gasoline on the fire.

So I told her:

Be physically active.
Minimum five hours of active work if possible.

Not “exercise” as a concept.

Real work:

  • declutter the home
  • throw away old things
  • cook
  • clean
  • wash
  • wipe
  • mop

Most activities should be physical.

Because physical work does something the mind cannot do:

It brings hunger back.
Digestion back.
Sleep back.

And sleep stabilizes everything.

Also: slow down your journey.

Slowly. Slowly. Slowly.

For some people, six months of simple stability is the real spiritual work.

Not visions.
Not theories.

Stability.

About Intimacy and “Completion”

In the session, intimacy came up — and I spoke about unfinished energy.

Here I want to say this carefully and cleanly:

If your body is carrying unresolved intimacy patterns, suppression can make things heavier.

But nothing should be rushed.

Nothing should be forced.

Your first priority is health and nervous-system stability.

If intimacy is part of your healing later, it must be:

  • fully consensual
  • emotionally safe
  • aligned with your real readiness
  • not done out of fear or pressure

Your body is not a project to push.

It is a home to rebuild.

So I told her to withdraw attention from relationships for now, and focus on wellbeing and work.

And if sexual energy felt overloaded, I gave a grounding outlet:

more cleaning, wiping, mopping — one hour daily.

Not as punishment.

As discharge.

Breath, Hold, and Third Eye Focus

Then I guided a breath practice.

Simple structure:

  • slow inhale
  • slow exhale through the mouth
  • after exhale, hold
  • keep the belly still
  • close the nose during the hold
  • focus attention at the third eye

She said, “I feel like I cannot breathe.”

I told her: good.

That’s the point of the hold — gently training the body’s tolerance.

But always: no forcing.

Slowly.

Over time, the mind learns: I can stay calm inside intensity.

After the rounds, I guided her inward again:

Eyes closed.
Attention at the forehead.
Look for the one who is aware.

That centered one.

That is you.

And the sadhana is about returning there — again and again — until it becomes natural.

Write Everything Down

I repeated one instruction:

Don’t keep it in the head.

Even one troubling word — write it down.

Questions. Thoughts. Loops.

Paper can hold what the nervous system doesn’t need to carry all day.

The Old Version Is Finished

At the end, I joked with her.

Not to insult her.

To break seriousness.

Because a mind-driven life is a “flop show.”

Big drama. No quality.

And I told her:

Don’t celebrate the old version.

First dissolve.
Become zero.

Only from zero, you create one.

Not from noise.

From simplicity.
