5. Autonomic Nervous System

About This Lesson

Mind/Body Control becomes achievable when you understand how the system works. This lesson explores the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions of the Autonomic Nervous System, which regulate your body’s responses to stress and relaxation, as explained in Polyvagal Theory.

You will learn the difference between the fight or flight response and the rest and digest functions of the nervous system. This lesson also introduces how breathing, specifically Deep Rhythmic Breathing, supports the management of stress and tension while helping regulate the Autonomic Nervous System.

By mastering Deep Rhythmic Breathing, you can stay COOL under pressure, achieve a stable internal environment, and promote balance within your body and mind.
