Stop Trying to Fix Your Nervous System—Try This Instead

👉 Join our membership community here: https://melissawest.com/membership 

Most nervous system teachings focus on what’s wrong—fight, flight, freeze, and fawn—but what if your nervous system isn’t broken? What if it’s already working for you? Instead of constantly trying to “fix” or “heal” your nervous system, this video explores how to work with it, recognizing its natural intelligence, adaptability, and the moments of regulation that are already happening in your daily life.

We’ll explore how your nervous system is designed for resilience, connection, and flexibility—and why shifting your focus from what’s wrong to what’s working could be the most powerful nervous system practice of all.

Incubator inside the membership is a 4-week guided program designed to help you expand your nervous system’s capacity and experience true regulation from the inside out.

JOVS 4D Laser Red Light Therapy Mask 4 months later

❤️Jovs 4D Laser Red Light Therapy Mask Link for Purchase ❤️ 

After 4 months of using the JOVS 4D Laser Light Therapy Mask, I’m excited to share my in-depth review and the noticeable differences in my skin! Unlike traditional LED masks that target the epidermis, the JOVS mask uses low-level laser technology to penetrate the dermis layer—the source of collagen, elastin, and fibroblasts—for deep skin rejuvenation, improved elasticity, and long-term results. From smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin to reduced fine lines, wrinkles, and pigmentation, I’ve experienced gradual yet significant improvements over time.

In this review, I’ll cover key insights, including how I use the mask daily during my mobility and meditation routines, the benefits I’ve seen with age spots, fine lines, and sagging skin, and how it compares to other devices I’ve tried. I’ll also address common questions, like the difference between laser and LED technology, why the JOVS mask is uniquely designed for targeted facial treatments, and how it fits into a holistic skincare routine with gua sha and serums. Whether you’re curious about its efficacy or considering investing, this review will help you decide if the JOVS mask is right for you!

Start your day with the simple yet powerful practice of drinking warm lemon water in the morning. This refreshing ritual helps rehydrate your body after a night of sleep, replenishing your fluids and setting the tone for a healthy day. The sour taste of lemon stimulates digestion, encourages elimination, and supports liver function by acting as a natural detoxifier. Packed with vitamin C, lemon water also gives your immune system a boost, helping your body stay resilient. This small but significant act offers more than just physical benefits—it becomes a moment of self-care, supporting your body and overall well-being.

In this video, I guide you through a mindful morning ritual with warm lemon water. From slicing the lemon to pouring the water slowly, each step is an opportunity to pause and appreciate the present moment. Reflect on the interconnectedness of the lemon’s journey—how the earth, sun, rain, and many hands brought it to your kitchen. As you hold the cup in both hands, take a deep breath, savor the uplifting aroma, and smile. This moment is sacred. You are nourishing not only your body but also your spirit, grounding yourself in the simple joy of self-care.

I Used the JOVS 4D Laser Red Light Therapy Mask for 30 Days 

❤️Jovs 4D Laser Red Light Therapy Mask Link for Purchase ❤️ https://jovs.com?sca_ref=6606651.BDN0EihsG77ZYQpa&utm_source=kol&utm_medium=melissa-west&utm_campaign=eaden-10

In this video, I’m going on a 30-day challenge of using the JOVS 4D Laser Red Light Therapy Mask to see if it can help me fall asleep and stay asleep. As a menopausal woman facing the added challenges of jet lag and time zone changes from two upcoming trips, I’m putting this mask to the test under some seriously difficult conditions. My goal is to find out if the red light and NIR therapy can really boost melatonin production and improve sleep, or if it’s just better to stick to the known skin benefits and look elsewhere for sleep support.

Throughout the challenge, I document my experience using the mask while traveling, from packing it in my luggage to using it in different locations and dealing with unexpected obstacles that came my way. With sleep being such a common struggle among my viewers, especially during menopause and stressful situations, I know how important it is to find solutions that truly work. Watch to see if the JOVS 4D Laser Mask in action, or if I end up regretting this experiment with my sleep, my family visits, and emotional well-being on the line.
