Trauma & Your Nervous System: Tools to Get Out of Fight or Flight, Get Un-Stuck and Get Regulated

Sarah Baldwin x Maria Menounos Does life have you in contant states of stress and anxiety? Did you know that your nervous system elicits these states NOT your mind? That your nervous system has been programmed by your life's experiences? That life traumas lead to a 'dysregulated' nervous system that leave you in states of stress, anxiety and even chronic illness? That our culture is made up of dysregulation? That your nervous system profoundly affects purpose and relationships.
Sarah Baldwin, Somatic Experiencing Practitioner and trauma-trained Life Coach is back for part two to teach us how you can reprogram and regulate your nervous system for relief. How somatic tools such as swaying, tapping and even playing music can regulate a nervous system and how proximity to others who are dysregulated can dysregulate you. She also breaks down the three states we enter in times of stress and how our states create our story (NOT vice versa) as well as somatic boundaries vs. normal boundaries.
If you're looking for a system reboot, to be able to respond, not react, to live a more calming, peaceful and healthier life, this episode is for you. Be sure to check out Part One if you haven't already.
Enjoy!

Maria Menounos is doing a great thing, and I admire and understand her, but if I were out fishing and had no luck, I may think about turning in.
