Summary

While sitting on the beach meditating and knitting, Ashley heard that this is what you need to hear today -- and so, the episode was made. In this short episode, Ashley explores the relationship between the nervous system and intuition.

When the body is in survival mode, clear consciousness is unavailable. Intuition cannot rise above urgency, pressure, or chronic activation. In a world that rewards anger, reaction, and constant engagement, choosing peace is a powerful act.

This episode is a reminder to rest, to slow down, to feel what is present without overwhelm, and to create space by saying no, asking for help, delegating, and stepping back from what keeps the system activated.

A regulated nervous system creates clarity. From that clarity, intuition becomes strong, trustworthy, and grounded.

0:00.0	Today's episode of the podcast is short and sweet and focused on regulating the nervous system,
0:08.1	calming down, prioritizing your peace, and also allowing yourself space. Yes, we can talk about it,
0:16.6	but what does that actually look like in this episode? I give you some guidance and some very clear and easy things that absolutely everyone can do.
0:26.6	But it does require a little bit of discipline, especially when it comes to putting your phone down.
0:36.0	All right, let's jump in.
0:40.2	Welcome here.
0:41.7	I'm Ashley Hemalinen, host of Light of the Way and founder of Aline Within.

0:58.9	May this show be a light of the way for you, illuminating your path as you rise.
1:08.4	Hello everyone. Welcome back. Thank you so much for being here today. I am sitting here
1:14.4	looking out at the beautiful sky, which is still so bright, and it's 5.53 p.m. when we got home
1:24.5	today from being at the beach, I walked into the house. It was five o'clock and I took a
1:31.8	video because the sun was coming into our home. This is the first time I have seen it this way,
1:40.5	which is a sign of spring. It's truly a sign of spring because the sun is moving now and it can come into our home.
1:49.6	We haven't had the sun in our home since, well, last October probably,
1:58.9	because it moved so far away that it wouldn't come into our home. Oh,
2:05.9	it just feels so nice. Um, yeah. I almost didn't make an episode this week because I'm feeling so
2:17.0	inward and so quiet. And I quite love it that when I don't
2:25.1	put out an episode and I don't say anything about it, there just isn't an episode, I will receive
2:32.1	emails from some of you. And you thank me. You thank me for reminding you that it's
