Do you ever just feel stuck? Like you know all the things you need to be doing to improve yourself or be a better mother, but you just canāt? You donāt have the energy or motivation to take action steps because all of your energy is bound up from the stressful moments in your past! Hereās the thing: when we perceive we are in a stressful situation, our body activates our fight or flight response. The thing is, most of us donāt fight or flight in the eyes of danger- we actually freeze. When weāre frozen, our body is still pumping adrenaline, ramping up our heart rate and blood pressure- so that we can fight or flight, but we are frozen. Instead of using that stress response for action- we are immobilized and all of the adrenaline, pounding heart, shallow breathing, and high blood pressure gets remembered by our body. Our bones, muscles, tissues, and nervous system store this stress response in our body- because we didnāt express it and it has to go somewhere! All of the stressful times youāve been through are literally bound up in your body, keeping you in an unhealthy physical state, with harmful posture and a harmful mindset. If you want to BREAK that loop you have to liberate your nervous system. By activating your parasympathetic, rest and digest nervous system with NetworkSpinal specifically- your body will release that stored, bound tension. When our body isnāt storing old stressful moments, it has more capacity to DO! When you unbind bound energy, potential energy becomes kinetic- energy to make healthier and happier decisions. Other strategies may help you gain momentary momentum, but to create sustainable changes- you need energy. You canāt utilize the energy your body has stored in your body without bringing the body to the rest and digest side of the nervous system. This is a skill that your body needs to be reminded of. Your body should be able to efficiently move from fight or flight to rest and digest, yet because of our insanely stressed out society- almost everyone who walks through the doors of Emerald Waves is in a fight or flight, survival state when they arrive. Thatās what Iām here to help with š¤
