The Powerful Tool of Nervous System Regulation with guest Amanda Nova

In this episode we get to collaborate with Amanda Nova as she shares ways to regulate the nervous system, as well as WHY that is a good idea in the first place, and what can easily landslide in our health if we get out of balance. Amanda is an expert in nervous system regulation and a holistic health practitioner, sharing practical tools and wisdom on health vitality, stress management, hormone balance, and gut health. We also discuss how chronic stress can lead to physical and emotional conditions, the role of the vagus nerve in nervous system regulation, the importance of gut health in overall well-being, and methods for detoxing the body for optimal health. We can’t really over-emphasize the value of self-care in maintaining health, but that may mean something different than the commonly used references to “just taking a bath.” Let’s break it down to it’s roots and begin healing from there in powerful, yet bite-sized ways throughout the day.
