Welcome to Part 2 of 3 in this mini series of episodes on Meditation and the Nervous System.
In this episode, we dive deep into the anatomy of the stress response and explore why meditation is such a powerful antidote.
You’ll learn how this survival system was designed to protect us but how in modern life it often works against us.
Topics covered:
- What the stress response is and why nature designed it
- Your biological defence shield
- Why imagined fears trigger the same reaction as real danger
- How chronic stress drains energy and relegates our health
- A lesson from the animal kingdom
- 5 ways stress physically reshapes the body (jaw, joints, digestion, nerves, tendons)
- Why meditation is a practical tool to reset the nervous system
Stress isn’t just “in your head”... it’s in your body!
Through meditation we help our physical body guide shift the nervous system out of chronic sympathetic activation and into a restorative state where tissues, joints, and nerves can re-lengthen, decompress, and heal.
