This Episode Will Calm Your Nervous System | Prentis Hemphill

This is the 10% Happier Podcast. I'm Dan Harris. Hello, party people. How we doing today? We all know it.

We all feel it. We're living in a time where our nervous systems are under assault. And today I've got a guest who has an enormous amount of practical and very wise guidance for relaxing your nervous system, getting out of your head and into your body. Prentice Hempill is a therapist, somatics, teacher, and the author of the best-selling book, What It Takes to Heal. In this conversation, we talk about what the term embodiment really means.

A lot of people throw that word around. I'm not sure they even know what they're talking about, so we're going to get specific on what embodiment really means. We also talk about how our bodies are sending us more signals, communicating more information to us than we often realize. We go over some practices to feel more at home in your body and to regulate your nervous system. We talk about the head, heart, gut way of listening to different kinds of intelligence.
