Rewire The Podcast


May 10, 2022

Have you ever wondered why your body reacts to certain environments and situations in a hyper-inflammatory way? In this episode, Lindsay discusses how physical symptoms can be a result of a dysregulated nervous system, using the examples of food sensitivities, anxiety, and other chronic symptoms. Lindsay talks about how we can identify the fight-or-flight response in the body and how to combine somatic, bottom-up approaches, & top-down regulation to create a balanced autonomic nervous system


Show Notes:

-Acute stress response definition: fight-or-flight

-Traffic light symbol: Red: freeze; Yellow: fight-flight; Green: growth-repair

-The goal is to signal safety to your body more often than note; this is your autonomic nervous system in balance

-How “danger” gets communicated when we eat something “healthy” like a salad – how this can show up as inflammation, pain, anxiety, bloating, etc.

-We are communicating with our environments (internal and external)

-Cellular communication of stress broken down

-The concept of Epigenetics

-Simple exercises you can use before you eat
