The freeze response, tonic immobility in sharks, and what to do about it (unless you're being hunted by an Orca)

Better Than Yesterday: Osher Günsberg

Osher describes how yesterday he discovered an underlying freeze response which he didn’t realise was playing havoc with his life.

‌

Join him for an exploration in to how if we’re not in “fight” or “flight” we can become immobile, literally frozen and unable to speak.

‌

(He also manages to work the hunting habits of South African Killer Whales into this conversation, which was a nice surprise. You won’t believe their favourite snack).
