5 Minute Breathing of Cues of Safety At every moment, your nervous system is scanning the environment around you, inside your own body, and between you and another's nervous system for cues of safety and cues of risk. Depending on what it sees, hears and feels, your nervous system shifts into a state of connection or into a state of defense and protection. Let's take a quick 5 minutes to send cues of safety to your nervous system in order to anchor yourself in a state of calm strength, creativity, relaxed centeredness and connection. https://youtu.be/GMRIHO7d-Rw

Climb the Autonomic Ladder of your Nervous System If you are mobilized in Sympathetic Fight/Flight (feeling anxious, restless, angry, scattered) apply this practice to organize your energy toward a calm strength. If you are immobilized in Dorsal Vagal shutdown or collapse (feeling overwhelmed, lethargic, helpless or alone) apply this practice to connect with your body, breath and sense of safety. https://youtu.be/cXmqt0B4xn0

If you are unsettled, anxious or agitated, follow along to organize your energy and settle into your body, breath and awareness. If you are lethargic, confused or overwhelmed, follow along to access some energy, focus and calm strength. Beneath your story is a neural platform. Learn how to recognize it, and shift it deliberately and skillfully. https://youtu.be/WP_tBT38YM4
