Your nervous system doesn’t feel safe—because of how you talk to yourself.
Ever wondered how the way you talk to yourself could impact your nervous system? Lee Davy, host of the 1000 Days Sober Podcast, takes you on a journey exploring the powerful effects of self-talk on your body and the world around you. Drawing inspiration from Dr. Masaru Emoto's research on water crystals, Lee shares a personal anecdote about a tax bill that sent him spiralling into shame and self-criticism.
He dives into the concept of neuroception, a term coined by Dr. Stephen Porges, which describes how our bodies unconsciously detect safety or danger through subtle cues like tone and facial expressions. Lee illustrates how negative self-talk can ripple into every interaction, affecting not only your own well-being but also those around you. He recounts his experience at the doctor's office, where he realised that his internal dialogue was altering his energy and impacting others unconsciously.
Through this episode, Lee encourages listeners to pause and reflect on their inner voice, suggesting that healing begins with a single compassionate sentence whispered internally. This episode isn't just about calming your system; it's about understanding how your inner dialogue shapes your presence in the world. With a touch of humour and raw honesty, Lee challenges you to consider what kind of energy your words are producing inside you today.
So, if you're ready to transform your inner world and reshape how others experience you, this podcast offers valuable insights into making positive changes in your life. Take a moment to ask yourself – what sentence have you repeated this week that's caused harm? And how would it sound if it came from a place of self-love?
