Episode notes
Brain And Body Communicate Both Ways
- The nervous system is bidirectional and peripheral tissues matter for solving problems, not just the brain.
- Focusing solely on central signals can miss root causes in muscles, organs, or peripheral nerves.
Fuel Your Nervous System
- Eat regularly to support parasympathetic 'rest-and-digest' control and avoid impairing inhibitory control.
- Starving yourself reduces self-control and backfires on goals like eating healthier.
Show Up For Your Inner Child
- Reparent by showing consistent self-compassion and meeting unmet emotional needs from childhood.
- Keep showing up for your inner child with small, tangible acts to build trust and proof of care.
