Anchoring Your Nervous System: Insights from Polyvagal Theory
Manage episode 438242884 series 3486337
In this week's episode of 'The Nourished Nervous System', I get into some of the basics of polyvagal theory, its origins, and the significance of anchoring the nervous system in the ventral vagal state for optimal health and resilience.
The episode covers the evolution of the nervous system, the roles of dorsal vagal, sympathetic, and ventral vagal systems, and illustrates how these states correspond to traditional Ayurvedic concepts of Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas.
Listeners are introduced to the 'vagal brake' and the importance of recognizing and collecting 'glimmers'—moments of joy and safety.
I also share personal experiences and practical tips, including a guided self-massage practice (Abhyanga), to help listeners ground their nervous systems, particularly during times of heightened Vata in autumn.
In This Episode:
- Understanding Polyvagal Theory
- The Evolution of the Nervous System
- The Vagus Nerve and Its Functions
- The Vagal Brake and Its Importance
- Anchoring the Nervous System
- Practicing Safety and Regulation
- Noticing Glimmers
