The Brave Table with Dr. Neeta Bhushan 348: Why Your Nervous System Can’t Heal in Chaos—And How to Fix It
Does your home actually feel safe, or just look good for Instagram?
In this soothing solocast, I share the powerful connection between your physical space and your emotional well-being. As a mom and nervous system educator, I’ve learned firsthand how even the tiniest environmental shifts can change everything—from our mood to how we show up in our relationships.
If you're craving peace in the middle of chaos, this one’s for you. No fancy remodels required—just intention, ritual, and a reminder that your calm is medicine.
What you'll get out of this episode…
Why cluttered or chaotic spaces signal danger to your brain—and how to stop the stress response
What a "calm corner" is (and how to create one in just 5 minutes)
The connection between beauty, sensory rituals, and emotional regulation
How your nervous system absorbs energy from your environment, especially as a mom
Daily grounding rituals that anchor your nervous system (without adding more to your plate)
How to create a healing home—even if you're in a tiny apartment, or on the go
