James Dowler - Nervous System with a Jungian Lens - Episode 135
Manage episode 480985795 series 2330548
Welcome to the weMove podcast.
In this episode, we return to exploring the fascinating world of the nervous system. Chris and I first encountered nervous system work in 2016. While it's always been present, it remains on the fringe of movement and personal development—particularly in the context of how an overwhelmed nervous system impacts our ability to function optimally.
When our nervous system is maxed out with unprocessed experiences, it becomes challenging to tap into our full potential. Fatigue, unexplained pains, and a general sense of "off-ness" are signals that we can’t just ignore or suppress. These feelings demand attention, not avoidance.
Over the years, we’ve had the privilege of speaking with some brilliant minds in this space, people who are helping others reorganize, recalibrate, and restore their nervous systems. What intrigues me most is how different generations approach this work. While Chris and I have our go-to guides, those older or younger may resonate with entirely different perspectives.
Today, I’m joined by James Dowler, who I see as part of a new wave in nervous system exploration. Drawing from his own transformative experiences, James combines insights from Jungian psychology, somatic practices, and his own research to create a framework for nervous system recalibration and restoration.
As with all things, finding the right teacher, coach, or guide—someone you connect with—is essential to truly benefit from the process. If this topic resonates with you, James might be a great starting point. I also encourage you to explore our other episodes, as each guest brings a unique perspective that could be the perfect fit for you.
Big thanks to James for sharing his time and insights.
From Chris and me, Peace.
