Discover how muscle tension is more than just a physical strain—it's a key player in perpetuating anxiety. Join me, Emily, a neuromuscular massage therapist, as we unravel the intricate relationship between stress, tension, and the fight-or-flight response locked within your muscles. Through a fascinating exploration, you'll understand why relaxation is not just a luxury but a necessity for mental peace. Plus, I introduce you to the transformative power of the vagus nerve reset, a tool that can help guide your body from a state of perpetual alarm back to tranquility.
Ever wondered why your body feels like it's constantly bracing for impact, even during mundane tasks? This episode offers a practical test to illustrate this phenomenon and provides actionable insights into how daily stressors like tight deadlines and constant urgency can send our primitive survival instincts into overdrive. Hear how I work with my clients to manually calm the vagus nerve and learn how you can perform these exercises at home. Whether you're navigating everyday stress or dealing with chronic anxiety, this conversation equips you with the knowledge and techniques to reclaim a sense of safety and calm in your life.
