"When You Get To the Root You Can Pull Out the Weeds"


In today’s episode, I speak with world renowned scientist & researcher, Dr. Stephen Porges, author of Polyvagal Theory and Deb Dana, world renowned clinician, author, and consultant. Both are co-founders of the Polyvagal Institute. Some of the questions, I ask are:

1. What is the vagus nerve and why is it so critical to our emotional and physical health?

2. Why do women & marginalized populations suffer from more chronic symptoms than anyone other group?

3. How does having a sense of safety affect our physical health?

4. Why do most physicians end up treating the symptoms and never the cause?

And so much more…
