We are in part 4 of a 6 part series as we unpack Roseanne's Nervous System Informed Approach to finding stable ground in ways that are long lasting. So ways that engage neuroplasticity, bioplasticity and easily accessible to you, when you know what's what.
In this episode we do a quick recap on the 6 dynamic stages of the Nervous System Informed Approach, we revisit the Nervous System Continuum and its 4 key states: survival mode, dysregulation, self-regulation, and co-regulation. We recap the Inner World and how it informs you Outer World. And then dive into Environment.
"The environment is the sole governing agent of the particle!" - Einstein
We can change the programs running our human on autopilot by consistently feeding new information in 60-second increments to our body. We do this through self-awareness that allows us to both recognise the internal grip that shows up in the body, and the things in our environment, that when we pause and connect with for 60-seconds, release the grip. Doing this consistently throughout your day, day-to-day provides your body with new information that changes the programs.
Our 5 senses consume information from our environment at the rate of 500 soduko books a minute (let's say). That information being taken in through a body locked in survival mode, will be distorted and misread signalling our nervous system that we are not-safe-can't-trust, which wil instruct 50 trillion cells in our body to animate accordingly. We can bring awareness that this is happening. Then we can cultivate an environment that deliberately feeds our 5 senses infromation that we are safe. The nervous system will then instruct 5 trillion cells in your body to animate accordingly. Improving executive function, opening up imagination, creative problem solving, all the stuff we need to be excellent at life.

ABOUT #WTTLO?
Life after Complex-PTSD, and just beyond those first stages of recovery, is a lot like having someone turn the lights on after years navigating in the dark.
On this side of it, I reckon a lot more can be done to improve the sign posts that mark the way out. This podcast exists to discuss life in the dark, compare notes on mapping the way out, and explore what life is like with the lights on.
Who Turned On The Lights is the evolution of Trauma Informed Growth. All 27 episodes from Trauma Informed Growth, Season 2 will remain available on this channel.
