Today I talk about the Parasympathetic/calm state- the nervous system state where our body can rest and repair.
When we are in survival states (Fight/Flight, Freeze/Fawn), we use more energy and compromise the organ systems of the body.
But in the calm/ rest and repair state, we have increased circulation, digestion, and immunity.
We have more activation of the prefrontal cortex- so we are more collected, present and creative.
It is a learning state, and we are more receptive AND intuitive.
This parasympathetic/calm state takes less energy for the body. It is a place of more ease and flow.
Your cells are either in defense mode or repair mode, they can't be both.
So by giving yourself a chance to rest or play, you are "Doing something" very important! You are letting your body heal!
