Some of what we’ve covered:
Vagus nerve evolutionary development, how it influences our current lives and why mammals are the only animals that have this nerve
Which physical parts of the vagus nerve operate during each of the three experiential states
How to move between states, more possibilities and the limitations
Nervous system intuition: how our body detects threat (before we do) via pathways inside our body, outside our body, and in between our body systems
The part of vagus nerve that directly controls (and can even stop!) our heart rate
How our brains create stories to make sense of what’s happening in our body
Partnering with the nervous system: learning to listen to it, knowing how it works and using this info to design our inner lives
Co-regulation and its role in our wellbeing
Our patterns of connection and protection
More ways to anchor in safety
How to gently shape our nervous system
Polyvagal work & the next wave in the somatic movement
Polyvagal work will be an even more vital force in the next wave of the somatic movement.
Why? Polyvagal awareness makes inner change more manageable and meaning-full + humans are finally realizing the power (and the necessity, frankly) in respecting their nervous system, and not a moment too soon, eh?
Be a part of a community of people who share an interest in going a step further in befriending their nervous system. You’ll also be among the first to know about additional polyvagal + related offerings.
