50 - NERVOUS SYSTEM - Nervous System Regulation, Co-Regulation, Self-Regulation & Healing Ft. Dana Doswell

Ever feel like everything is just a little too much and that you feel more sensitive than most people? Or that you are either hyper stressed out, with 101 things on your to-do list that all need to be done at once? Or, alternatively, do you not feel much at all? Are you lethargic and struggling with motivation and can think of nothing better than lying on your sofa, never leaving the house & eating take out and binging netflix? Has the pandemic changed you as a person and the outside world doesn’t feel as good as it used to?  In today’s episode, Louise sits down with nervous system coach and somatic therapist Dana Doswell to discuss how our relationships, community, city and even the pandemic can either hurt or heal your nervous system. Dana & Louise get into:  What is somatic bodywork; How and why emotions show up in the body;  Louise’s personal tendency to shift into fight & flight as opposed to rest & digest or freeze; and How so many of us are disconnected & numb to what is really going on around us and inside of us.  The pair also discuss the impact that coming back to London has had on Louise’s nervous system as well as discussing how other big changes, like the pandemic, are deeply distressing to so many people’s nervous systems (even if you didn’t realise it) and how it has shifted the entire way that your body (and mind) may function.  Dana also runs through the three ‘states’ of the nervous system and how these are supposed to work in a healthy functioning and resilient nervous system, as well as discussing the impact that loving and stable relationships can have on your biology and physiology vs. those that are unhealthy And so much more!  If you took value from this episode, please share to your socials & give us a rating on Apple Podcasts or Spotify to help us reach as many people as possible with the life changing and transformative impacts of therapy and emotional health practices.  ------ HEALING HONEYS (formerly OPENHOUSE)- STREAM MORE 🤍 Stream Healing Honeys on Spotify 🤍 Stream Healing Honeys on Apple Podcasts 🤍 Stream Healing Honeys on YouTube 🤍 Join Ad free listening CONNECT WITH LOUISE 💌 Connect with Louise on Instagram & TikTok 💌 Connect with Healing Honeys on Instagram 💌 Submit a question to the Healing Honeys Hotline 💌 TRASH TALKS: Submit Your Awful Dating Stories HEAL WITH LOUISE ✨ 7 Day Somatic Healing Trial: Daily Devotion ✨ Therapy + Healing PDFs: Therapy Shop ✨ 7 Day Free Confidence Queen Overhaul: Waitlist Sign Up ✨ There She Glows: 12 Week Life Transformation: Waitlist Sign Up Learn more about your ad choices.
