What if the real reason your nervous system work isn't "working"… is because you've been aiming for the wrong goal?

So many people in the concussion and healing space are trying to "feel safe," "stay calm," or "get into parasympathetic mode" — only to end up more frustrated, more dysregulated, or even more disconnected from their bodies.

And here's the kicker: It's not that you're doing it wrong… it's that you've been told to chase an outcome you can't physiologically access yet.

In this episode, Natasha breaks down the misconceptions around nervous system regulation and exposes the hidden ways our approach may actually be keeping us stuck. From meditation backfiring, to emotional suppression showing up as symptoms, to the importance of meeting your body where it actually is — we go there.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU'LL DISCOVER:

• Why "feeling safe" is often too big of a first step — and the realistic place to start instead

• How to know when meditation and calming tools will help… and when they'll make you feel worse

• What your body is really asking for when you feel snappy, irritable, wired, or "crawly" in your skin

• Why repressed emotions turn into physical symptoms — and the journaling practice that helps move them out instead of storing them

Your nervous system isn't something to "fix." It's something to understand — and today, you get the clarity you've been missing.
