424: Reset Your Nervous System with Body Alignment (Repost)

Reset your nervous system this summer by realigning your body! In this episode Dr. Motley gives you the tools to balance your nervous system by uncovering physical dysfunction, and how struggles with your spine can be a sign of organ issues. If you’ve had any kind of an accident or trauma, Dr. Motley breaks down how central the physical and the emotional really are.

Muscle imbalances and a sore spine could be signs of other kinds of imbalances. - Suggested herbs: Mimosa Pudica https://shorturl.at/peMl5 for potential parasites, Schisandra for your liver: https://shorturl.at/abeQm.
