Скачать или смотреть S2E2:The Science of Inner Calm: Understanding Your Nervous System and Survival Responses

Welcome to this guided journey into the architecture of your own survival and peace. Have you ever wondered why your heart starts racing during a small argument, or why you suddenly feel "stuck" when facing a big task? You are not broken; you are responding exactly the way your body learned it had to for your preservation.
In this educational session, we explore the incredible story of your nervous system and the biological "bodyguards" that work to keep you safe.
In this video, you will learn:
• The Inner Smoke Detector: How a tiny, almond-shaped part of your brain called the amygdala scans for threats and can override your logical "thinking brain" in a split second.
• The Gas and the Brake: A simple look at the Autonomic Nervous System, where the sympathetic branch acts like an accelerator for action and the parasympathetic branch acts like a brake for rest and recovery.
• The 5 Fs of Survival: A deep dive into how our bodies choose between Fight, Flight, Freeze, Fawn, and Flop to navigate danger.
• The Window of Tolerance: How to find your "optimal zone" where you can think and feel simultaneously, and how to gently expand that window over time.
• Grounding Practice: A step-by-step walkthrough of the 5-4-3-2-1 technique to pull your brain’s resources back to the present moment.
• Seeking Glimmers: How to identify micro-moments of safety and joy that help rewire your brain to default toward calm.
Understanding these signals is the first step toward reclaiming your agency. By practicing these small moments of connection, you can move from just surviving to truly thriving.
