Most people believe that calming the nervous system is the key to healing. Meditation, breathwork, relaxation exercises—they all sound like the perfect formula and let's be honest, they can be beneficial in some ways. But here's the surprising truth: simply relaxing your nervous system could actually backfire and keep you stuck in pain, fear, or illness. In this episode, Brandy Gillmore breaks down the hidden risks of focusing only on nervous system regulation and why true healing requires more. You'll discover: Why nervous system relaxation alone doesn't create lasting self-healing. How constant calming can actually suppress fear and emotions instead of releasing them. The essential role of courage, empowerment, and confidence in mind-body healing. A new way to rewire your mind for real transformation, joy, and health. If you've been working on your nervous system but still feel stuck—or you're searching for a deeper way to heal your body and mind—this episode will show you what's missing and how to finally move forward. IMPORTANT NOTE: We understand that some may believe mind-body healing is impossible. Therefore, if you would like to see images of individuals using their minds to relieve pain, you can check out this medical journal. It includes images from some of Brandy's case studies. If you want to learn how to use your mind to heal yourself, you can check out the training on Brandy's website. Each week, Brandy publishes a volunteer episode where she coaches a volunteer to heal themselves using their own mind. In addition, Brandy shares a quick IQ episode (Insights and Questions) where she answers listener questions or delves deeper into insights on working with the mind for healing.

Welcome to the Future Generations Podcast with Guest Alyssa Campbell, author of "Tiny Humans, Big Emotions" (New York Times Bestseller) and her newest book "Big Kids, Bigger Feelings" out this September. In this episode, Dr. Stanton Hom talks with Alyssa Campbell, diving deep into the complex world of children's emotional intelligence and nervous system development. Targeting parents of children aged 5-12, educators, and child development professionals, the conversation explores the nine sensory systems, how children process stimuli, and provides practical strategies for supporting emotional growth. Campbell breaks down the unique ways children experience and regulate their emotions, offering insights that can help parents move from reactive parenting to intentional, compassionate guidance. Highlights: "All behaviors are communication of a need." "What we're sensitive to drains our nervous system. What we're seeking recharges it." "We're all unique humans, and the way our nervous system works is unique." "It's not a question of whether your body is wise. The question is, what is your body trying to say?"

Text your thoughts and questions!If you're feeling constantly on edge or overwhelmed by life's demands, you're not alone, and your nervous system might be the reason why! Think of the nervous system as your body's communication highway, with messages on what to think, feel, and do traveling at hyper speed. On one side, you have your body's "fight or flight" response, known as the sympathetic nervous system, and its essential counterpart, the "rest and digest" parasympathetic nervous system. Both sides are equally important and, when able to balance one another out, are the key to living a healthier, more productive life! In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I'm talking about why you must support your nervous system for a healthier, more productive life!In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I'm sharing the vital role your nervous system plays as your body's “central command center” and giving you actionable steps to take right now to regulate yourself, breaking the cycle of stress and burnout.I cover the following topics:Differences between the sympathetic (“fight or flight”) and parasympathetic (“rest and digest”) systems.The physical, mental, and emotional signs of nervous system overload and its impact on your health and relationships.The connection between chronic stress, health issues, and burnout.Five powerful practices to support your nervous system.Remember: Supporting your nervous system doesn't require a complete life overhaul.

My nervous system has been collapsing for the last two weeks and here is a real time account of what I'm experiencing. Something about a nervous system that is slowly in decline is that it's really hard to catch and it will sneak up on you. Perhaps you have experienced some of the symptoms or are currently experiencing the symptoms yourself. As somebody who teaches about the nervous system, it simultaneously is really awesome and it sucks to be so hyper aware when your system is approaching a collapse. For me, I am very aware of my energy rhythms and currently the biggest take away is that any energy that I'm generating is going towards processing emotions to the point where afterwards I don't have anything left for other things. I'm grateful that this emotions have a place to exist in my physical body and that my body is alchemizing them at this intense rate, but it doesn't change the fact that it is incredibly exhausting! I'd love to hear from you if you've experienced what I'm talking about in this episode!
Hello my beautiful friends, In today's episode we're going to be talking about some niche things I do to keep my nervous system regulated. It's worth noting that I honestly had no idea that a lot of these things were actually keeping me regulated, I had just learned over time things to do to avoid worsening anxiety symptoms or to avoid things that put me in a bad mood. But the more I learn about the nervous system and how to keep it regulated the more I am realizing that I do a lot of these things pretty naturally. & just to clarify, these are things that I do to stay regulated, everyone is different so if these don't resonate with you - that's fine! Check in with your own body and see what feels regulating to you. If you have any questions or want deeper clarity on what I've discussed in this or any previous or future episode, my inbox is open for invitations and questions.

In this Ask Dr. Tony episode, Dr. Tony Ebel tackles a common parent question: "My child has autism/ADHD, but didn't have birth trauma - why?"Dr. Ebel explains that while 90-95% of his cases involve clear trauma triggers, the remaining cases show the same nervous system dysfunction from subtler causes. He outlines the "Three T's" of stress (Trauma, Toxins, Thoughts) and how minor stressors during key developmental periods can accumulate into neurological challenges. Modern children face unprecedented stress levels - from prenatal maternal stress to environmental toxins, EMF exposure, medications, and overstimulating environments. All these factors lead to the same outcome: sympathetic nervous system dominance and dysregulation.The encouraging news? Cases without obvious trauma often heal "faster, better, cleaner" since less severe stress is easier to reverse. The focus should be on addressing nervous system dysfunction through neurologically focused, drug-free care rather than just managing the diagnosis.Key Topics & Timestamps([00:01:00]) - The Question That Puzzles Parents - Introduction to autism/ADHD without obvious birth trauma([00:04:00]) - Same Nervous System, Different Triggers - How all neurological conditions show the same underlying dysfunction([00:05:00]) - The Three T's Explained - Breaking down Trauma, Toxins, and Thoughts as stress categories([00:07:00]) - Hidden Modern Stressors - The subtle but pervasive stress of modern life that gets normalized([00:10:00]) - The Most Toxic Generation - Living in the highest stress, toxic-load world in human history([00:15:00]) - Critical Development Windows - Why early stress has profound impact on developing nervous systems([00:17:00]) - The Real Action Step - Focusing on nervous system regulation rather than treating diagnoses([00:19:00]) - The Silver Lining - Why cases without obvious trauma may actually heal better-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

As the air shifts and the light changes, so does our energy. Every year, I notice how September brings both a craving for structure and the weight of unfinished goals. That tension can create the perfect storm for self-sabotage.I've been there myself—sitting at my desk with a launch on the horizon, kids heading back to school, routines upended—and instead of taking aligned action, I found myself spinning, tweaking little details, or avoiding the work altogether. On the surface, I looked productive. Inside, it felt like collision.In this episode, I break down why self-sabotage spikes this time of year, how it's really a nervous-system safety pattern (not laziness or lack of willpower), and what simple shifts you can use to end the spin and return to calm, clarity, and aligned action.✨ Why listen all the way through? Because I'll share a mini-practice from my SHIFT framework that can help you move out of sabotage and into alignment in under a minute—something you can use right away whenever overwhelm hits.Support the showVisit theresalearlevine.org to get Theresa's Book, "Becoming More Me: Tapping into Success - Subconscious Secrets of an ADHD Entrepreneurial Mom" and receive the private sessions for Free!Becoming More Me with Theresa Lear Levine features conversations that Make the Never-Ending Journey of Becoming one you Want to get Present for & Enjoy!

Have you ever felt like food has all the power, that you can't trust yourself around it, or that no matter how hard you try, you keep falling into the same patterns of overeating, restricting, or guilt?What if your struggles with food aren't really about willpower at all, but about your nervous system?In this episode of Building Resilience, I'm joined by Jane Pilger, a coach who helps people move from fighting with their bodies to building food freedom and body trust. Jane shares her own 25-year journey with binge eating and how learning about the nervous system became the missing piece in her healing.We'll explore:Food struggles are signals from your nervous system, not lack of willpowerShame and judgment keep you stuck, curiosity and compassion help you healFood often acts as a safety strategy but can also feel unsafe (the safety paradox)Black-and-white thinking about food is a sign of dysregulationThe Three Powerful Questions: What do I notice?

35-Minute Yoga Nidra For Grief Grief can be present from so many different experiences. The most obvious being the loss of a loved one. Yet, grief can also be present when a relationship or a friendship ends, it can appear from the loss of a job or when you've moved out of a phase of life. The tendency that we often have is to dismiss or quickly move out of grief, yet this complex state of emotions ranging from sadness to guilt to anger is a powerful and important journey that must be felt and moved through with compassion, grace, understanding and patience. My hope is that this practice will help you feel safe so that you may remain present and grounded in your grief, thereby feeling it without fear or impatience. For it's only when grief is felt and honored that it can move through and out of the body. Here on this channel you can find many other yoga nidra offerings from me.

Under September's full moon, we sit in the messy middle of it all—thresholds, tenderness, and the very human urge to know what's on the other side. In this episode, Lauren shares the mixed cocktail of grief and excitement as her daughter starts preschool and a whole new chapter of life and motherhood (and schedule) opens up. Nicole reflects on the one-year mark of her child's autism diagnosis and what softened in their family because of language, support, and self-compassion.

The state of our nervous system impacts the predictions that we're making about the people and the world around us. And the work lies in identifying all of the ways in which we don't trust in ourselves or trust in life and then bring courageous curiosity towards those areas" — Jonny Miller "Any conflict is a potential edge to grow from. There's always going to be rupture in relationships. It's about how lovingly can you repair? How quickly can you go from conflict back to connection?" — Jonny Miller "We are in a world which worships self development. But there's a great distinction in self-development and self-unfoldment. When you're approaching inner work through the lens of self-developemnt, it often has this premise of part of me is broken and I need to fix it. Self-unfoldment, ot the other hand, starts with the premise of I am already whole and worthy of love." — Jonny Miller

Summary In this episode, Ali Damron discusses the complexities of perimenopausal symptoms, emphasizing the significant role of the nervous system in amplifying these symptoms. She explores the differences in how women experience hormonal fluctuations and the importance of addressing both hormonal and nervous system health for effective treatment. The conversation also covers various treatment options, including HRT and antidepressants, and highlights the necessity of managing stress and integrating neuroplasticity strategies for lasting relief. Takeaways Perimenopausal symptoms vary greatly among women. The nervous system significantly influences symptom severity. Hormonal fluctuations are not the sole cause of symptoms. HRT can be beneficial for many women. Stress management is crucial for symptom relief. Integrating neuroplasticity can enhance treatment outcomes. Women often feel broken due to ineffective treatments. Teaching the brain to feel safe is essential. Both hormonal and nervous system support are necessary. A holistic approach is key to managing perimenopausal symptoms.

Dr. Tony Ebel addresses one of the most common challenges facing families with chronically ill children: healing interventions overload. Many parents are managing multiple therapies, dozens of supplements, and restrictive diets while feeling like nothing works and their child remains stuck or regresses.Dr. Tony reveals the counterintuitive truth that the most advanced healing approach is "less is more." He explains how well-intentioned interventions can overwhelm a child's already stressed nervous system. The solution is a three-phase approach: Phase 1 focuses exclusively on foundational Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care, Phase 2 gradually reintroduces therapies, and Phase 3 is where breakthrough healing occurs. The key message: healing comes from proper sequencing and the child's innate ability, not from piling on more interventions.Key Topics & Timestamps([00:00:00]) - The Overload Crisis - How millions of parents are overwhelmed managing multiple interventions without seeing results([00:04:00]) - When Good Interventions Go Bad - Why overwhelmed nervous systems cause children to plateau or regress despite "doing everything right"([00:09:00]) - Less Is More Philosophy - The advanced approach prioritizes foundation and sequencing over doing everything at once([00:11:00]) - The Computer & Circuit Breaker Analogies - Relatable explanations of how nervous system overload works([00:15:00]) - The Energy Theft Hierarchy - Scientific breakdown of how stress systematically affects gut, immune, and motor systems([00:21:00]) - The Three-Phase Action Plan - Foundation first (Phase 1), gradual reintroduction (Phase 2), breakthrough healing (Phase 3)([00:28:00]) - The Patience Factor & Next Steps - Honest discussion about the difficulty of slowing down and practical guidance for getting started-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

Better sex isn't about new positions, toys, or tricks—it's about your nervous system. When your body feels stressed, arousal shuts down. When it feels safe, pleasure flows.In this episode of Sacred Sex for Real Women, Jannine MacKinnon shows why your nervous system—not technique—is the foundation for desire. She shares a behind-the-scenes story of losing her libido during bathroom renovations (and how she shifted back into pleasure), along with client examples that reveal how nervous system regulation transforms intimacy.You'll also learn three simple ways to shift your state—so you can move from stressed and shut down into relaxed, open, and ready for pleasure.✨ This is part 1 of a 2-part series. Next week, we'll explore the hidden nervous system responses that get triggered during sex and how to rewire them for deeper openness and connection.

Six root causes fuel this cycle, including toxic thought loops, gaslighting, family dynamics, and the fear of silence. Personal stories reveal how rambling dilutes authority and leadership, even when the intention is good. The brain's wiring for safety and early childhood patterns show why this habit is so hard to break, but there are two practical strategies that offer a way forward to stop the spiral, retrain the brain, and speak with clarity and confidence.You'll Learn:How to recognize the signs that you're overexplainingWhy the brain wires this habit as a safety mechanismThe six root causes that drive overexplaining (you might have more than one)How toxic thought patterns set the stage for ramblingWhat happens when gaslighting or narcissistic dynamics distort your truthWhy overexplaining can become a barrier when you haven't felt heardThe peacekeeper role and how blame can fuel overexplainingWhy being chatty often fills the silence and masks discomfortTwo ways to start overcoming the verbal vomit cycle todayTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction[06:02] How the brain wires overexplaining as a safety response[07:12] Toxic thought patterns as the first root cause[08:04] Being gaslit or living with a narcissist[10:57] Overexplaining as a barrier when you haven't been heard[12:34] Justification to prove worthiness or avoid judgment[14:05] The peacekeeper role and carrying blame[16:00] How chatty space-filling masks anxiety or discomfort[21:27] Neurodivergence and traumatic brain injury as factors[22:58] Two practical ways to disrupt and rewire the overexplaining cycleResources Mentioned:How Your Birthdate Can Reveal Patterns of Challenges and Transformation with Michelle Dowker | Spotify or AppleFind More From Dr. Stephanie Davis:Dr. Stephanie Davis | WebsiteQuantum Rx | InstagramQuantum Rx | Skool
In this episode of The Psychedelic Podcast, Paul F. Austin speaks with Jonny Miller, founder of Nervous System Mastery and host of the Curious Humans podcast. Find full show notes and links here: https://thethirdwave.co/podcast/episode-320/?ref=278 Jonny shares how the loss of his fiancée led him into grief work, psychedelics, and the study of stress physiology. Their conversation explores the three pillars of nervous system mastery—interoception, capacity, and emotional fluidity—and how these skills can prepare and support deeper psychedelic experiences. Jonny also reflects on the risks of hypoarousal and dissociation in psychedelic and breathwork practices, the role of relational health in nervous system regulation, and how high performers can shift from burnout-driven “dirty fuel” toward cleaner sources of creativity and joy. Jonny Miller is the founder of Nervous System Mastery, a five-week experiential training that helps high performers cultivate calm, resilience, and embodied aliveness. His approach blends evidence-based protocols with practices drawn from breathwork, meditation, and stress physiology. Jonny also co-created the Stateshift App and designed the Calm Cards Deck, practical tools for daily nervous system regulation. Jonny hosts the Curious Humans podcast, where he explores themes of resilience, embodiment, and curiosity with leading thinkers. His work centers on making nervous system literacy accessible for both personal growth and psychedelic preparation. Highlights: • How grief and loss opened Jonny to psychedelics • The three pillars of nervous system mastery • Safety as the foundation for psychedelic depth • Breath as a brake or accelerator in journeys • Why he separates psychedelics from intense breathwork • Mapping different medicines to nervous system skills • The risks of shutdown and dissociation in high doses • Re-regulating after destabilizing psychedelic experiences • Relational health as nervous system nourishment • Shifting from burnout to clean energy in leadership Episode Sponsors: Psychedelic Coacing Institute's Intensive for Psychedelic Professionals in Costa Rica - a transformative retreat for personal and professional growth.

Functional freeze is not laziness. It is a learned survival strategy that lets you function on the outside while feeling numb or shut down on the inside. In this episode of Trauma Rewired, Elisabeth Kristof and Jennifer Wallace unpack freeze, tonic immobility, and flop, and show how functional freeze can look like “getting by” while feeling numb inside. They map the differences between freeze and burnout, explain why interoception goes offline, and share gentle, minimum-effective-dose practices to thaw safely and rebuild capacity.. You will learn how chronic stress blunts interoception, why your voice disappears in hard conversations, how shame loops keep the pattern in place, and why high performers often miss freeze because it hides behind perfectionism and people pleasing. Topics Discussed in This Episode: The freeze spectrum, acute freeze, tonic immobility, flop Functional freeze vs burnout Interoception and emotional numbness Relationship patterns, shutdown, flat affect, rupture and repair Language masking, shame loops, lost voice High performers, people pleasing, perfectionism, hidden freeze Whole system view, not only the vagus nerve Minimum effective dose, breath, voice, tiny mobilizations Resourcing and capacity building before big emotional work From dissociation to embodiment and agency

At BossMom, we're not here to teach you how to “balance it all.” We're here to name what's real—so you can build a life and business that actually fits who you're becoming. In this episode, Dana shares a deeply honest reflection about what she calls burdensome abundance—those seasons where everything you asked for is showing up at once… and it's just too much. It's not because you're failing. It's because you're expanding. You'll hear how Dana talks to her nervous system in those stretched-too-thin moments, why emotional whiplash is often part of growth, and what it really means to expand your capacity—not just to stay calm, but to stay connected to what matters most. This isn't an empowerment pep talk. It's a mirror. And if you've been feeling both grateful and exhausted, this is your permission to feel it all—and keep going anyway.

Why do so many people suddenly start losing weight when they finally escape a toxic relationship or environment? What if your body's stubborn weight isn't about willpower, metabolism, or even food - but about stored trauma keeping you in survival mode? When you're trapped in toxic relationships or environments, your body operates from what I call chronic functional freeze. This isn't just emotional - it's a complete biological shutdown that affects everything from your thyroid function to your detoxification pathways. Your metabolism hibernates, toxins accumulate, and your body holds onto weight as a survival strategy. In this Biology Behind It mini episode, I answer practitioner Zay's excellent question about why clients lose weight effortlessly after leaving toxic situations, even without doing deep healing work yet. I break down the hidden biology keeping you stuck and why your nervous system won't let go of excess weight until it feels truly safe. You'll hear more on: Why avoiding feelings creates a biology of energy conservation and metabolic shutdown How chronic functional freeze affects your thyroid hormones - including reverse T3 that doctors rarely test The connection between stored trauma and toxin accumulation that makes weight loss impossible Why detoxification pathways shut down when your nervous system is in survival mode How toxic relationships create the same biological effects as physical toxins Why your inner operating state drives all your body systems - not individual organ problems How creating inner safety naturally eliminates coping mechanisms like emotional eating The integrated approach to clearing both emotional and physical toxins safely Whether you've struggled with stubborn weight that won't budge despite your efforts, or you're supporting someone who's finally ready to leave a toxic situation, this episode reveals why your body refuses to let go until your nervous system feels safe. I give you hope that when you address the real root - stored trauma - your body naturally returns to health.
