How Much Stress Can Your Body Really Handle?
What a New Study Reveals About Healing, Coherence & the EE System
We’ve all done it.
We push through fatigue. Override headaches. Normalize stress. Dismiss the tension we feel as “just life.” But here's the thing...
Your body is keeping score. And it's asking for something different.
In a recent podcast conversation with Dr. Sandra Rose Michael (creator of the EE System) and clinician Roland Pankewich, something became very clear:
Most people aren’t sick in the way they think—they’re chronically stressed. And over time, that stress becomes illness.
This blog explores why that matters—and what happens when your nervous system is finally given the chance to reset.
Stress Isn’t Just Mental—It’s Physiological
We tend to think of stress as an emotion. Something to “manage” or meditate away. But physiologically, stress is a state of the nervous system—specifically, a dominance of the sympathetic response (fight or flight).
In this state, your body prioritizes survival.
Digestion slows. Sleep gets shallow. Inflammation spikes. Healing shuts down.
“People are spending their health like a bank account they never plan to replenish.”
—Roland Pankewich
The body can only keep up for so long before it begins to signal imbalance—first through subtle symptoms, and eventually through more persistent conditions.
The good news?
We can interrupt the loop.
And the EE System is a tool that’s helping people do just that.
What Happens Inside the EE System?
Think of it as stepping into a zero-point field—a cocoon of coherence where the noise quiets and the body remembers how to heal.
💡 Inside the scalar field, your body:
Shifts from sympathetic stress mode to parasympathetic healing mode
Increases heart rate variability (HRV), a marker of resilience
Reconnects with the natural rhythms of breath, sleep, and repair
Begins to offload toxins (yes, that includes emotional ones too)
Activates its original design for coherence and regeneration
It’s not a treatment for one thing—it’s a reset for everything.
And just like sleep or nourishment, the more consistently you give your body that environment, the deeper the transformation.
Why You Might Feel Tired or Energized After a Session
A common question we hear after someone's first session is:
“Why do I feel so tired?”
Here’s the short answer:
You’re not crashing—you’re integrating.
Your body is recalibrating. It’s shifting out of mental overdrive and into detox, repair, and nervous system realignment. The EE System facilitates a return to natural coherence—where fight-or-flight gives way to deep rest and realignment.
That’s not fatigue.
That’s healing in progress.
🌟 But what about the opposite—feeling more energy after a session?
Also very common.
And it’s not just “a boost”—it’s bioenergetic rejuvenation.
Scalar fields, as created within the EE System, have been shown to elevate brainwave coherence, increase ATP production (that’s cellular energy), and re-harmonize the subtle electrical systems of the body. Your cells remember their ideal vibratory state—and in the absence of interference, they return to it. This return can be enlivening.
When you emerge from a session feeling awake, joyful, inspired—this is the frequency of resonance. Your system is attuning to Source. You're not just energized—you're aligned.
✨ Whether You Feel Sleepy or Supercharged—It’s All Working
So whether you leave your session ready to nap or ready to create—trust your body.
One response isn’t better than the other.
Both are signs that your system is responding to the field, exactly as it needs to.
This is what restoration looks like when it’s finally safe to let go.
❤️ Restoration Requires Repetition
As Roland shared in the podcast, one of the key findings was this:
The benefits of the EE System are real—but they’re amplified by consistency.
Just like you wouldn’t expect a single yoga class or one green smoothie to change your life, true transformation happens with ongoing support.
That’s why we created affordable packages and monthly memberships—to help you maintain that parasympathetic healing momentum without relying on one-off visits.
