Why Your Nervous System Keeps You Undercharging (And How to Fix It)

As a health practitioner, you’ve probably been there.

You’ve raised your rates, created programs that actually deliver results, and then when a potential client asks, “So how much will it cost?”... you feel that nauseous, gut-wrenching wave. The kind that makes you relive your worst food poisoning incident.

And just like that, you cave. You default back to the same rates you swore you’d never touch again.

That “too much” feeling? It’s not just your mind panicking. It’s your nervous system sabotaging your business growth.

The Nervous System Sabotage in Business

You can practice your sales pitch, visualize success, and read every manifestation book on your shelf. But when you’re in the moment stating your rates, your body betrays you.

Instead of expanding, you shrink. You hold back. You undercharge.

Cue the inner interrogation:

💭 “Is it really my calling to help people, or am I just obsessed with money?”
💭 “What if no one will pay these rates?”
💭 “Am I really worth charging this much?”

If every time you try to raise your rates your body feels like it’s about to purge that chicken shawarma from that wild Toronto night in 2012… Ask yourself... is that really your truth?

Or is it just your nervous system dragging you back into comfort zone mediocrity?

Why Your Nervous System Dictates Your Income

When you’re scaling your health business, your nervous system will either make you or break you.

If it isn’t rewired to handle power, visibility, and boundaries, it will:

• Drag you back to charging “starter” rates

• Attract energy-vampire clients

• Stop you from saying “no” without a guilt spiral

The “too much” feeling is your nervous system maxing out, unable to hold the expansion your brilliance actually deserves.

And if you’ve spent years shrinking to make others comfortable, brushing off compliments, or feeling guilty for wanting more... This has become your nervous system's pattern. The homeostasis that it will continue to fight... unless you fix it.

The Real Cost of Playing Small

Ignoring your nervous system’s reactions will cost you.

• You’ll burn out.

• You’ll overwork.

• You’ll resent clients you once loved working with.

Your business will stall because you need to take frequent sick days from trying to grow with a body stuck in survival mode.

Mindset hacks and Pinterest money boards won’t save you if your nervous system can’t hold the space for expansion.

The Tangible Results of Nervous System Expansion

When you rewire your nervous system, everything shifts:

✅ You raise your rates without flinching.
✅ You let silence do the work when someone says, “That’s expensive.”
✅ You walk away from draining clients without the 15-day guilt spiral.
✅ You show up fully, without worrying about being “too much.”

This isn’t about grinding harder. It’s about expanding your capacity to hold more without breaking down.

Rewiring Your Nervous System for Success

Forget endless breathwork, surface-level affirmations, or repeating Polyvagal Theory 101 like a mantra.

You need a body that can hold power, visibility, and boundaries without collapsing.

You need to step into the version of you that can lead, earn, and impact without sacrificing your health or sanity.
