How to Rewire Your Body's Response to Stress, Trauma & Anxiety Feat. Dr. Stephen Porges

This is the Edmiland Show. All right, hey guys. So today's podcast is going to be unique. It's a dive into the deep end of understanding you. And I'm with Dr.

Stephen Porges, who you'll hear about in a minute, but we don't waste any time. So we're going to use terms that many of you haven't heard of from before, like HRV, which stands for heart rate variability. And that's the variation in your heartbeat, not your heart rate, but your heart variability. And that matters because they believe, you know, in modern science that that's an indicator of what physical state your body's in, the neurostate that you're in. You'll hear about parasympathetic and sympathetic state.

All you need to know about that is the sympathetic state is sort of considered fight or flight mode in most circles. And the parasympathetic state is known as more of like a peaceful or flow state, the vagal nerve or the vagus nerve. It's just a nerve that runs really, it's the longest nerve in your body. And this nerve, when stimulated, they believe changes that state that you're in.
