457: Sympathetic vs Parasympathetic: The Nervous System Battle in Your Body with Sachin Patel

What if the free solution to your stress, anxiety, and increased cortisol has been right under your nose this whole time? 

Most women in midlife accept stress, poor sleep, and declining energy as inevitable parts of aging. But what if I told you that something you do 23,000 times a day—without thinking about it—holds the free key to transforming your nervous system, improving your sleep, extending your life, and even preventing dental problems?

Metabolic health expert Sachin Patel reveals the shocking connection between how you breathe and virtually every other aspect of your health. You'll discover why 66% of people are sabotaging their sleep every single night, how mouth breathing is the #1 cause of cavities (not sugar!), and the simple technique that can shift you from chronic stress to deep relaxation in just minutes.

Sachin shares the fascinating science behind breath as the "steering wheel of your nervous system" and teaches practical techniques you can use immediately to read other people's stress levels, calm your own anxiety, and optimize your recovery. We dive deep into the sympathetic versus parasympathetic nervous system, the hidden epidemic of mouth breathing, and why your ancestors had perfect teeth without ever seeing a dentist.

If you've been struggling with anxiety, poor sleep, or feeling stuck in survival mode, this conversation will give you the tools to literally breathe your way to better health. Get ready to discover the most powerful (and free) tool you already own for transforming your midlife wellness journey.
