Sound and nervous system regulation
Sound is one of the oldest and most instinctive tools for nervous system regulation available to us — woven into the most primitive layers of our neurology. Here is what the science says about why sound affects us so deeply, and how to use it deliberately for healing.
The stress response, nervous system and the benefits of somatic movement.
Movement like yoga, breathwork, gentle shaking and grounding can signal safety in the body, discharge stress hormones, and shift the nervous system out of chronic activation. Here is what is actually happening physiologically — and why movement is one of the most powerful regulatory tools available.
The Vagus Nerve
