The Rebellious Healer

#90 The Parasympathetic Shortcut: Why Relaxation Isn’t Enough to Heal


Listen Later

You’ve been told that if you can just relax—just activate your parasympathetic nervous system—you’ll heal. So you meditate, cold plunge, breathe deep... but something still feels off. This episode is your wake-up call.

In today’s episode of The Rebellious Healer, we’re dismantling the popular belief that calm equals healing. Because the truth is: if your body doesn’t feel safe, no amount of nervous system hacks will create lasting change.

You’ll learn:

  • Why tools like breathwork and sound baths feel good—but often miss the root cause.
  • What’s really keeping your body stuck in survival mode, even when you’re doing “all the right things.”
  • What it actually takes to stop managing symptoms and start healing at the source.

If you’re tired of chasing calm and ready to meet the truth your body has been carrying, this episode will change the way you see your healing journey—forever.
