Lee Davy, the voice behind the 1000 Days Sober Podcast, is back with another engaging episode titled "Struggling With Relationships? Heal Your Nervous System First." This time, he dives into the complex interplay between our nervous system and relationships. If you've ever found yourself snapping at loved ones or pushing people away despite your best intentions, this episode might just hold the answers you need.
Lee shares his personal experiences with moments of frustration and aggression, highlighting how an overwhelmed nervous system can disrupt our ability to connect with others. Drawing inspiration from Preston Smiles' book "Spiritual Millionaire", Lee discusses the transformative power of healing your nervous system. He argues that true love—calm, grounded, and unconditional—can't flourish when you're frazzled.
With anecdotes that are both humorous and relatable, Lee paints a vivid picture of how past traumas can leave us in a state of perpetual defensiveness, impacting not just our personal relationships but also our relationship with alcohol. Through the lens of Internal Family Systems Therapy, Lee explores the idea of 'parts'—those fragments of ourselves that react defensively—and 'self', which embodies pure love.
He offers practical advice on how to widen your window of tolerance and train your nervous system to choose love over fear. This episode encourages listeners to reflect on their own behaviours and consider how healing their nervous system might improve their relationships. So, if you're tired of feeling like a ticking time bomb in your interactions and want to learn how to lead with love, this episode is definitely worth a listen.
Could healing your nervous system be the key to better relationships and a more peaceful life?
