In this episode I chat about something that is not talked about much in the wellness and trauma space – the healthy fight/flight response. There is so much focus on calming, soothing, and down-regulating the nervous system, but it's also really important to have safe access to our healthy fight/flight energy.

In this conversation I discuss:

- What is the fight/flight response
- Why they fight/flight response happens
- How to access our 'healthy aggression'
- How the fight/flight response is helpful for: anger, boundaries, clarity, motivation, creativity, etc.
- The results my clients are getting by creating more capacity with their healthy fight/flight response.

Enjoy! 💜

In this episode, we chat about what "regulation" means exactly when it comes to your nervous system, and how to have more of it in your body and emotional life. 

When we have more access to the rest and digest, or the ventral vagal part of the nervous system, we are able to regulate ourselves more frequently. So, regulating the nervous system is about working on our capacity with difficult feelings and experiences. And then knowing how to come back to feeling settled in rest and digest again. 

Listen to this episode if you'd like to react less in your life, and get better at regulating your nervous system

Topics we discussed were:

Episodes mentioned:
Episode 48: The Nervous System And Polyvagal Theory
