Our bodies go into survival mode when we’ve been dealing with negative emotions for a long time. This makes you feel exhausted all of the time. When the nervous system is out of whack, mystery diseases, chronic illnesses, and mental problems follow. But how do we control it? How can we begin the nervous system’s mending process?

Psychologist Nicole LePera addressed the subject of a dysregulated nervous system and healing on her Instagram profile a day ago. Nicole, who goes by the handle The Holistic Psychologist on Instagram, is well-known for regularly posting her thoughts on such topics. Nicole emphasised the significance of nervous system care, writing, ‘I truly believe a key to a healthier human, family, and society is through nervous system care.’ Nicole scribbled down five ways in which we might begin the nervous system’s mending process.
