Understanding Nervous System Mastery

Nervous system mastery is described as the lifelong journey to cultivate greater agency and intentionality over one's emotional state. It involves expanding the space between stimulus and response, allowing individuals to develop more awareness of their internal experiences. The more one recognizes and regulates their emotional responses, the less reactive they become in daily life. This process is particularly rooted in the work of Viktor Frankl, emphasizing the importance of awareness and internal tools for emotional regulation.
