My pursuit to know my nervous system through poly vagal work continues, leading me to some surprising discoveries. This exploration is a very private process, complete with a LOT of long pauses, some head scratching, many sighs and every so often a resounding ah ha. Sometimes painful, but always worthy.

I’m on a mission to befriend my nervous system and apparently, I’m not alone. 

Dr. Deb Dana - a respected expert on Polyvagal Theory, wrote a book titled: Anchored: How to Befriend Your Nervous System which I borrowed from my therapist. Since I often read in the bathtub, it looks like I will need to buy her a new copy and keep this one. Which is perfectly fine by me. It’s a gem of a book. 📖
