Natural Ways to Manage Nervous System Regulation

 Your nervous system is vital for your body—whether in fight or flight mode during an emergency, allowing your body to relax on vacation, or operating your body’s daily functions. But a dysregulated nervous system can leave you feeling stressed, anxious, and fatigued. Read on to understand how to recognize the signs of a dysregulated nervous system and how to naturally restore regulation.  What Is the Nervous System and What Does It Do? The nervous system is your body’s communication network made up of the brain, spinal cord, and nerves carrying messages from the brain throughout your body.

Seasonal Rhythm Of The Doshas 😰😓😅

Have you ever noticed that you find yourself drawn to one particular season over another? Perhaps you are a chaser of the sun and avoid cold climates at all cost. Maybe you are more of the snow bunny type and become irritably uncomfortable with higher temperatures and humidity. Or perhaps overcast, rainy days are your jam. Whichever end of the weather-partiality spectrum you land on, there is a good chance that your  dosha , or mind/body constitution, is responsible for your preferences. Depending on your own combination of the five elements, certain  seasons  will create a sense of peace and harmony within you because they are complementary to and/or pacify your own elemental expression.

          Life is hard. Every day it seems like a new challenge appears to test your patience. You may not realize that chronic stress can also lead to long-term health complications. Living in a constant state of fight-or-flight tells your body to produce too much cortisol which can lead to weight gain, diabetes, mood swings, fatigue, and many other conditions. ( 1 ) While it’s important to take steps to manage stress, certain calming herbs can help strengthen your body’s stress response. Adaptogens are some of the best calming herbs because studies show they might make your body and mind more resilient to external stress.
