By knowing how our nervous system controls our responses, we can start to point ourselves in the direction of growth by integrating a recovery programme that can change how we feel for the better.
Ever wondered why your reactions to certain situations seem almost automatic? In this episode of 'The Narcissistic Abuse & Trauma Recovery Podcast', Caroline Strawson dives into Polyvagal Theory to explain how our nervous system shapes these responses. By understanding the role of the vagus nerve and the science behind our gut instincts, Caroline sheds light on why we often react negatively and how we can change that.
Caroline explores how hormones like cortisol and adrenaline affect our perception of narcissistic abuse. She also introduces a practical tool called the 'traffic light system' to help you identify your current state in trauma recovery. The aim is to shift from automatic, often negative responses, to more positive, growth-oriented reactions. Through a blend of scientific insight and empathetic guidance, Caroline offers a pathway to turn pain into purpose.
She emphasizes the importance of understanding your nervous system to create a tailored recovery plan that can significantly improve your well-being. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to reclaim their life from the clutches of narcissistic abuse and move towards healing and self-worth.
