$0.00

A one-page guide to understanding why rest feels hard for ND bodies—and how your nervous system is actually trying to help you.

A one-page guide to understanding why rest feels hard for ND bodies—and how your nervous system is actually trying to help you.

If slowing down or “just relaxing” has never felt easy, you’re not alone—and you’re not doing anything wrong. Many neurodivergent nervous systems stay in a constant “always on” mode, making traditional stillness feel uncomfortable, unfamiliar, or even unsafe.

This free one-page guide breaks down why rest feels hard for ND bodies—and offers a gentle, accessible reframe that supports your unique wiring.

Inside you'll learn:

  • Why your body isn’t fighting rest—it’s protecting you

  • How ND nervous systems respond to stillness differently

  • Why safety must come before relaxation

  • What rest actually looks like for ND bodies (hint: movement counts!)

Designed with a minimal, calming layout to support sensory accessibility.

Perfect for:

  • Neurodivergent adults

  • Anyone who struggles with stillness

  • Anyone exploring nervous system education

  • Therapists, coaches, yoga teachers, and professionals supporting ND clients

This free guide is part of my Yoga for Neurodiversity research project, focused on helping ND bodies access regulation + rest in ways that feel doable and safe.
