The inner-hunter-gatherer is the sneakiest contributor to the imbalance of the nervous system because we do not think much of our inner-hunter-gatherer when conceptualizing how the nervous system is affected by the world. We think of that trauma we had as a young child, that toxic relationship we were in, and the time we were bullied in high school. But we do not give credit to how we have an inner-hunter-gatherer; who never evolved to understand the world as it functions today.

I hope this concept will give you more empathy for your nervous system, and help you to understand how/why your nervous system functions the way it does. This will help you navigate the imbalance of the nervous system with more awareness, and aid you in surrendering to physical symptoms.

The more we know and understand, the more informed we are, and the more confident we feel in making decisions for ourselves in regards to: the tools we use, the way we navigate the imbalanced nervous system, and where to go from here.
