You’ve learned Polyvagal basics, the states of protection, the state of connection but did you realize there are blended states?  In today’s final recap Maegan, Cameron and Lauren discuss the nuances of blended states which are more common than you might realize.  And then just to take it up a notch we play a bit with the idea of the Vagal Brake.  This biological function is exactly what permits mobilization without fight or flight.

In this organic series, Gemmotherapy expert and educator Lauren Hubele, Japanese Acupuncturist Maegan Lemp, and the Passionate Polyvagalist Cameron Scott explore the blended use of the Polyvagal Theory, Asian Medicine and Gemmotherapy extracts to restore a sense of safety and connection.

In addition to your two states of survival, your nervous autonomic nervous system has one state for connection. That state is the ventral vagal state.  It is where you not only feel a connection with yourself but also desire connection with others.  In today’s third recap session you will hear more about this state and how Cameron, Maegan, and I use people, places, and activities to anchor ourselves in ventral vagal.

Your nervous system comes well equipped with two states of survival. One of those is the sympathetic state that provides you with the energy to fight or flee and the other state allows you to disconnect and is called the dorsal vagal state.  Knowing the terms is one thing but learning what they feel like is another.  Step into our second recap session and learn how Cameron, Maegan, and I experience each of these states.

Catch this first of four review episodes in our months of polyvagal explorations.  Today we go back to basics and look at the terms hierarchy, neuroception, and co-regulation and what they have come to mean for us.

When your autonomic nervous system sends you into a place of a shutdown and disconnect what do you crave?  I believe you need reminders that you exist.  What those look like for you might be different for me because of our different trauma histories.  That is exactly why an individualized approach to trauma is critical. In this episode, we explore this idea and more diving deeper into discovering pathways to heal complex trauma.
