Got chronic fight and flight or gut health issues? Learn why the gut-brain axis may be your key to healing - and why common advice isn't working.

---

Do you struggle with feeling like you're stuck in chronic fight or flight?

Do you have chronic health issues, and have you ever heard that your gut health may be linked to your nervous system dysregulation, but you don't know where to start or what will actually work to heal your nervous system?

Do you worry that trauma may be behind your chronic illness or chronic health issues, but despite trying dozens of mind body therapies or exercises, you feel like you've made little to no progress in healing your nervous system?

If you said yes to any of these questions, then this episode is for you.

On today's episode, we're exploring the popular topic of the Brain-Gut Axis and WHY trying to support your brain gut axis hasn't created the change or healing you've been looking for - and maybe has even added stress or confusion to your healing journey.

Not only this, but for the next 3 episodes, we'll be exploring NEW ways you can support your gut brain connection and mind body connection through interviews with 3 guest experts who specialize in the mind body connection from the perspective of psychology, and how to ACTUAL regulate your nervous system - in a way that is totally different than what is being shared in pop culture right now.

We'll be tackling everything from:

Is the vagus nerve really behind your mind-body connection?
Why vagus nerve activation techniques aren't really getting to the root cause of your nervous system dysregulation
Your REAL nervous system anatomy
Why having a perfectly regulated nervous system isn't the actual goal in healing your mind-body connection
And how to regulate your nervous system out of fight and flight when nothing else has worked

If you've been struggling with bloating, constipation, IBS, leaky gut, or chronic illness and feel that your brain or nervous system may be driving your chronic health issues, then be sure to catch every episode this March. Because today, we are beginning the first episode in our Brain-Gut Series.
