The Threshold Moments Recipe is a simple, playful way to move from stress mode to presence mode — in less than a minute.
In this episode of Wholehearted Loving, Georgianna and Steph share a body-based “recipe” for threshold moments: the times when we move from one swirl of life into another. Georgianna tells stories of running errands, picking up her kids, and walking into a chaotic house — and how skipping her reset always escalated tension. Steph reflects on her need to add sensory ingredients (like squeezing her hands and feeling her feet) to truly land in the moment, and how these micro-practices keep her from spiraling into reactivity.
Together, they guide you through a sequence of seat awareness, shoulder rolls, thumping, and a simple acupressure point — and show how to adapt it for your own wiring, your family, or even your kids. This isn’t about performing calm. It’s about creating a pause so you can enter the next space with more steadiness and choice.
