If you don't prime your mind, the environment will do it for you.
Balancing your thoughts and emotions is crucial to healing. Stored trauma can have a detrimental affect on the nervous system. These affects come when the body is in a chronic fight-or-fight state, or sympathetic state.
What type of symptoms can arise when in a chronic fight-or-flight state?
- difficulty sleeping
- increased anxiety
- digestive issues
- increased headaches/migraines
What can throw your body into a fight-or-flight (sympathetic) state?
- Thoughts
- Traumas
- Toxins
What does this mean?!
Everyday stressors (physical, mental, and chemical) can lead the body to be in a sympathetic (fight-or-flight) dominant state. Here are some examples of each:
- Thoughts:
Negative self-talk, emotional trauma, anxiety from a stressful job/relationship, etc - Traumas:
Birth trauma, a slip and fall, physical changes that occur during pregnancy, etc - Toxins:
Moving into a home with mold, cleaning with toxic chemicals, consuming foods high in pesticides, etc
What happens to the body in a fight-or-flight state?
This high-stress state can lead to so many negative health effects, such as a decreased mental state. In order to have proper responses like restorative sleep, optimal digestion, and increased immune system function, the body has to be in a parasympathetic (rest and digest) dominant state.
Chiropractic care and network spinal works directly with the nervous system. It assists the body in moving from a sympathetic (fight-or-flight) state to a parasympathetic state (rest and digest).
