Wired But Tired: 60 Quick Tools to Calm Your Nervous System, Ease Anxiety, Help to Sleep Better and Reset When You're Overstimulated

You're not broken. Your nervous system is just stuck in the "on" position.

Tight chest. Racing thoughts. Wired all day, then wide awake at 1am wondering why you're this exhausted and still can't sleep. If that's familiar, this isn't a willpower problem — it's a body that's been running on high alert for too long, and it just needs a way back down.

Wired But Tired is a fast, no-fluff toolkit of 60 nervous system regulation techniques, organized by the exact moments you actually need them: mid-panic, first thing in the morning, at your desk, winding down at night, mid-doomscroll, and everywhere in between.

Every technique fits on a single page — a hook, clear steps, and a plain-language explanation of why it works. No chapters to wade through, no 20-minute meditations you won't finish. Just something you can actually use in under 5 minutes, whenever you need it.

Inside, you'll find:

10 fast resets for panic and overwhelm, including the physiological sigh and other science-backed breathing techniques

10 morning routines that start your nervous system regulated instead of already behind

10 desk- and classroom-friendly tools you can use without anyone noticing

10 evening wind-down techniques for when you're exhausted but can't switch off

10 tools for digital overwhelm and doomscroll recovery

10 ways to co-regulate with people, pets, and your environment

A guided workbook chapter to build your own personal "reset card" from the tools that work best for you

This book won't ask you to understand your vagus nerve or overhaul your life. It just hands you tools — real, specific, and fast — for the moments that are actually hard.

If you're tired of being tired, this is where you start.
