Pattern Interrput: Breaking the Stress Cycle 2/7
About this episode
Let’s be honest—stress doesn’t knock politely. It barges in through tension, anxiety, and those “I can’t believe they sent that” emails. 😤💻
In this episode of The Suite Spot, Dr. Derek Suite builds on Making Moves Monday and teaches how to take charge of our reactions before stress takes charge of us.
KEY SUITE SPOTS: We explore:
🧠 How one deep breath—especially with a longer exhale—activates the vagus nerve and quiets the amygdala.
🧭 How the prefrontal cortex (our brain’s CEO) helps us make better decisions once we’ve interrupted the cycle.
⚡️ And how asking three simple questions before we act can shift us from reactive to strategic.
The science is clear. The steps are simple.
We don’t need to push harder—we need to pause smarter.
🎧 Tune in to learn how to calm the chaos, reset the brain, and take back control—one breath at a time.
STAY AMAZING!!!
