Episode 3945:
Kate Hesse explains how the body’s sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems shape our response to stress, from adrenaline-fueled survival reactions to the restorative “rest and digest” state. She shows how modern life keeps many people stuck in chronic stress and why learning to intentionally activate the parasympathetic system is essential for health. Understanding this balance can help you regain energy, improve digestion, and build practical habits that calm the body and mind.

Quotes to ponder:
"Our body can’t tell the difference between actual life threatening danger and everyday stress."
"When you are in parasympathetic nervous system response it is the equivalent of parking your car at the gas pump."
"By taking slow and intentional breaths, you send a message to your body that it should be in a parasympathetic nervous system state."
