How to Master your Nervous System for Productivity and Joy - Jonny Miller

Every time you think you have a a decision to be made, like a big decision, it's usually an indication that there is actually an emotion to feel or emotion that you are avoiding. But if something actually lands in you, it's like a signpost that there's like an exiled part there that is wanting like love and attention. This episode is a conversation between me and my friend Johnny Miller. Now Johnny is an expert in the nervous system. He teaches a course called the Nervous System Mastery, where he's taught over a thousand students how to regulate and take control of the nervous system to enhance their productivity and performance, but also their joy and general enjoyment of life.

I'd say that there's actually an art to the feeling part of feeling good. Joy comes from or emerges on the other side of of being willing to welcome and feel the full spectrum. of our human experience. He specializes in teaching people how to access and work more skillfully with their emotions, which is something that I am very interested in. Now Johnny's introduction to these topics is quite interesting and also quite sad.

I was engaged to an amazing, actually junior medic, junior doctor, her name was Sophie. She had bipolar disorder. And on October 23rd, 2017, she took her own life. That journey that followed into and through grief was what unlocked all of this for me. Hey Johnny, welcome to the podcast.
