Just Breathe: Mastering Breathwork For Nervous System Balance With Somatic Coach Nicole Smith Levay
Manage episode 392061885 series 3464035
Happy New Year's Eve everyone (a few days early)! Welcome to the second in the Brave Women at Work holiday series. This is the next show that I hand-picked for you to listen to again (or listen to for the first time) as we are about to start a new year. Tending to ourselves and our nervous systems is a great way to rest, rejuvenate, and prepare for the year ahead.
The nervous system plays a big part in our health. A dysregulated nervous system contributes to stress, anxiety, depression, and burnout. If you’re prone to being on the verge of breaking down, you’re going to want to tune in. My guest, Nicole Smith Levay, a somatic energy and health coach, shares easy and effective breathing exercises in this episode. These exercises help regulate the nervous system and prevent burnout. Nicole knows first-hand what it’s like to burn out and have your body breakdown. Following the principle of “trauma to dharma”, she is now passionate about helping people, and especially women, deal with the same problem. In this conversation, she educates us on how important breathing is to keep our nervous systems and our stress in check.
She also discusses:
- What somatic psychology is and what a somatic coach does;
- How breathing can help regulate our nervous systems; and
- How breathing exercises make a positive difference in our professional and personal lives.
Tune in and listen to (or relisten) and learn how as simple a thing as your breathing can make a massive impact on your life!
