Episode 4 - fight, flight, freeze, or f*ck this: nervous system basics
Manage episode 510307086 series 3683838
Welcome to the first episode of our Nervous System Mini-Series! Today we’re breaking down the basics of your body’s wiring and why it sometimes makes you react like life is way scarier than it really is.
We’ll cover:
The biology of the nervous system and why it matters
The different states your body flips between (fight, flight, freeze, fawn, rest, digest)
How your ancient brain isn’t always built for modern stress
Why your nervous system sometimes gets it “wrong” — and how to bring it back into balance
A simple practice you can use to calm yourself down in real time
If you’ve ever thought, “Why the hell am I like this?” — this episode explains it, and more importantly, gives you something easy (and surprisingly fun) to do about it.
