S4-E16: Supporting Your Nervous System To Make T.H.E. C.L.I.M.B.

This is episode 16, also known as part 5 of our mini series on Successful Outside Struggling Inside. We explore all 8 bio-items that are the building blocks for optimum nervous system health. Those 8 bio items are captured as an acronym: T.H.E. C.L.I.M.B. Each of these 8 will be applied differently pending which run of the nervous system ladder your baseline currently is. 

We take a brief tour in and around each 1 and I make sure to add lived experience as we go, to ensure these feel as accessible as possible, for you to take away and work with right after the episode. 

The 8 bio-items? 

1. Thoughts
2. Habitat
3. Emotion
4. Community 
5. Log-off and Sleep 
6. Intake & Digestion
7. Movement 
8. Body-Mind Flow 

Resources mentioned in this episode include: 

• A Daily Practice to restore your nervous system to a minimum viable baseline. This is mine to inspire your own version.
• Increasing your quality of life using Nervous System Intelligence

Our community includes psychologists, psychotherapists, and psychiatrists who work through a trauma-informed lens — often with a special interest in supporting professionals aged 40+ or working within organisations.
