This week, we have a short video on what TRUE nervous system regulation looks like (hint: it’s not what you think).
You’ll also find out why using techniques to regulate, though maybe helpful in the short term, doesn’t create true, sustainable regulation long-term – and how simple ”hacks” might even make things worse.
With the rise of the “nervous system influencer” this topic is near and dear to my heart.
“Nervous system influencers” tend to share simple techniques (aka: “biohacks”), giving the impression that these things are all we need to restore regulation to our nervous system.
But unfortunately, it’s not that simple (or easy)*.
With that in mind, here’s what you’ll discover in this short, 2-minute video:
- Why your go-to relaxation techniques might be keeping you stuck
- Whether or not you’re living in a FALSE window of tolerance
- What most people get wrong about nervous system regulation
*Real nervous system regulation takes more than simple techniques. In my programs (like SmartBody SmartMind™), it’s a mix of education, practical exercises, and just plain ol’ time.
Yes, I teach various techniques, but used alone and without context, they won’t create true regulation.
When all is said and done, true regulation needs no techniques.
