Are Things Getting On Your Nerves?

Currently in Australia and in Bendigo, where I live, we are experiencing some real challenges as we are another lockdown. 

We’re facing restrictions on our way of life and although for many of us we can see why these things need to happen, our nervous systems are feeling frayed by the endless news and statistics, reports on cases and vaccines. 

If you team this with having to manage working from home and homeschooling children and, not to mention, those of you with partners, maybe having them at home all day with you.

Just the thought of it all can really frazzle your nervous system.

This podcast is dedicated to our nervous systems and how they relate to what's been going on in the world.

I'm going to explain about what Dan Siegal calls our, ‘Window of Tolerance’. By the end of this blog you will have an awareness of your own window of tolerance, how your nervous system is doing and some ideas to try to soothe your nervous system and bring it back to feelings of safety.
