Strap in for today's Nervous System Science 101! This knowledge underpins everything I do in my community work.
We'll cover how our body responds to different inputs and impulses, and how to create space for stress-recovery - which is the pre-condition for sustainable community building.
Our nervous system is like a snow globe. It has two states: "shake up", where all the particles whizz up in the air, and "slow down", where the particles slowly slowly fall to the ground. The former is fast and immediate, the latter is slow and can't be rushed.
Reflection invitation for today: how many "boring" activities do you have in your life, where your nervous system's snow globe gets the chance to let the dust settle?
See you tomorrow, where I’ll cover how our individual nervous systems begin to interact with each other, when we’re in the same room together.
