For years I functioned with a completely dysregulated nervous system. This didn’t just cause my gastritis (yes, my chronic gastritis was literally caused by stress💀), it led to a cascade of other chronic health issues. These are the practices I now do daily to regulate my nervous system. Not only have my chronic symptoms and health conditions improved, and some disappeared, but im now just a better human because of them. They’ve rewired my brain and body to feel steady and safe, meaning I’m no longer functioning in survival mode everyday. My parasympathetic nervous system (rest and digest) is now my baseline🫶🏽 Huge reminder that healing gastritis is not all about your diet. You can be eating all the right foods, but if your high cortisol and overactive nervous system aren’t being addressed, your healing progress will be delayed significantly, if not completely🤍 I’m going to make a part 2 because since filming this I’ve thought of so many more! #gastritis #nervoussystemregulation #nervoussystemhealing #cortisol #gutbrainconnection
