In this episode, we dive into the fascinating world of the human nervous system and why our bodies sometimes overreact, get stuck in survival mode, and how trauma can shape our nervous system responses.
By the end of this episode you'll be able to:
- Understand the basic structure and function of the human nervous system.
- Recognise how trauma can impact nervous system responses.
- Understand your personal triggers and how these affect your nervous system.
- Use simple tools like the polyvagal ladder to track and understand their nervous system states.
- Move toward greater flexibility between nervous system states instead of being stuck in survival mode
