Understanding your power

Dear One,

You're probably quite powerful. Let me explain.

Nervous system co-regulation is a fancy term that honors the fact that your nervous system impacts the nervous system of another within your orbit.

We often lament how we infect each other with dark energy, bad vibes, grumpiness, blahness, triggers. But you've got the potential to help the dominoes fall in the other direction too. At your best, you are a steadying force in the world, someone who can pull someone out of their spiral instead of hitchhiking down their rabbit hole.

Therapeutic yoga and mindfulness help you improve your nervous system's immunity and resiliency. So that you can hold on to your center, your higher self, longer and stronger. And bounce back from fight/flight/freeze mode with more agility. Which puts you in a powerful position to steady others as they navigate their own nervous system olympics.

In a dominant culture where too much power is held in the wrong places and spaces, notice where you're powerful. Nourish your power in whatever way helps you bring strength, clarity and safety to the world around you. See you on the mat.
