Ep 25: Is Nervous System Dysregulation Causing Chronic Gut Issues w/ Jessica Maguire

In this episode of the Nutrient Dense Podcast, I sit down with physiotherapist and vagus nerve researcher Jessica Maguire. Together we explore the profound connection between the nervous system, trauma, and chronic health issues. Jessica shares her journey from traditional physiotherapy to a holistic approach that emphasizes the importance of the vagus nerve in regulating health. The conversation delves into how emotional and physical pain are intertwined, the impact of stress responses on health, and the significance of allowing emotional expression for overall well-being. In this conversation, we also explore the intricate relationship between the nervous system, emotional regulation, and gut health and practical strategies for building capacity to handle stress.     WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT IN THIS EPISODE: Transforming your health requires understanding the brain-body connection. Chronic conditions often stem from nervous system dysregulation. Emotional pain can manifest as physical symptoms. Trauma leads to inflammation and chronic health issues. The Four E’s help in understanding bodily sensations. Trauma impacts gut health through the vagus nerve. Digestion is regulated by the nervous system. The story you're telling reflects your emotional state. Learning how to regulate your nervous system is key for lifelong health and healing.       LINKS: Book a strategy call with Hannah HERE Take the Gut Health Root Cause Quiz for free!
