Understand Your Nervous System and Activate Your Body's Stress-Relief Mechanism with Giselle Monbiot

Are your stress levels higher than you’d like them to be? Or perhaps, if you’re being honest, even thinking about stress management stresses you out? If so, this episode is for you!

We explore 60-second stress-busting techniques. Plus, wellbeing Specialist Giselle Monbiot discusses why and how we can regulate the nervous system to improve our physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Discover some simple techniques we can use to stimulate our vagus nerve and reset our nervous systems.

Once we can understand that the sensations our nervous system generates are in response to our thoughts, past experiences, and current stressors, we can then recognize what we can do to regulate them. With this awareness, we can make choices that care for ourselves, rather than deplete our energy levels and self-esteem, resulting in poor mental and physical health. Rather than existing with a perfectionist filter, take on self-compassion awareness instead!
