In a world increasingly dominated by artificial intelligence, we're forgetting the most sophisticated intelligence system ever created—the one inside your own body. While AI processes information, ancient intelligence processes life itself: healing wounds, creating connection, and generating the aliveness that makes existence meaningful. But here's the problem: most of us have been systematically disconnected from this intelligence since childhood, leaving us numb, anxious, and searching for answers outside ourselves.

Steven Jaggers is the founder of Somatic Breath Work and a pioneer in the nervous system regulation movement. With over 3,000 practitioners trained across 40+ countries, his work is now accredited by Arizona State University for continuing education credits. A former neuromuscular therapist, Steven has spent years studying the intersection of physical alignment, emotional regulation, and human connection. His unique approach combines Eastern somatic practices with Western neuroscience to help people reclaim their birthright: the ability to feel fully alive in their own bodies.

What You'll Discover

• Why numbness is actually an active process that's draining your life force – and the counterintuitive truth about why it takes more energy to suppress your feelings than to feel them

• The "Attunement Code": How to host another human inside yourself – the meta-skill that data shows is more healing than any technique, tool, or modality

• Why your nervous system regulation isn't about staying calm – it's about developing choice, and the surprising reason most people are stuck in the anxiety-depression ping-pong cycle

• The parasitic tension stealing your energy – how unconscious muscle contractions are robbing power from your healing, creativity, and aliveness (and how to redirect that energy)

• Why healing trauma alone is actually impossible – the science of co-regulation and why your wounds from people can only be healed with people

• The "Completion Principle" that changes everything – how somatic breathwork helps your nervous system finish the stress responses that trauma interrupted

• How to tell if someone is safe using your nervous system – the congruence test that reveals when someone's words don't match their internal state

• The four meta-skills of human intelligence – alignment, attunement, holding space, and range – that no AI can replicate and why mastering them is your greatest advantage in the age of artificial intelligence

Your Invitation to Aliveness

Your nervous system holds the key to healing, connection, and true aliveness—if you know how to access it. In this episode, Steven distills years of research and client work into practical insights you can use right away. Whether you're facing anxiety, feeling off, or seeking more from life, this is your roadmap. Tune in and discover why your ancient intelligence may be the most vital skill of the decade.
