Ben Ahrens, the co-founder of re-origin, explains how to recognize and counteract the brain's freeze response to overwhelming stress by using specific exercises that promote movement and breath control, with the goal of reconditioning the brain to prevent automatically entering freeze mode.
Key Takeaway Messages
1. Freeze mode is a natural protective response to perceived threats or overwhelming stress, characterized by feelings of immobility and sluggishness.
2. To counteract freeze mode, introduce movement through slow, deliberate walking or rotational joint movements, which signal to the brain that you are not stuck and can keep going.
3. Employ tactical breathing, which involves a continuous cycle of five-second inhalations and exhalations without breaks, to maintain oxygen flow and mental focus during high-stress situations.
4. Engaging in activities that create a flow state, such as writing, drawing, or other hand-focused tasks, can help shift attention from the mind to the senses and alleviate the freeze response.
5. Practice these techniques regularly, not just during stress, and gradually introduce stressors to train your brain to handle potential freeze-triggering situations more effectively.
