Old fave, new intro! We took a deep dive into our nervous system, with Melissa Romano, who educated us about the vagus nerve. She talked us through how to change the way we process stress and tone our nervous system, so that we can stay better connected, responding appropriately rather than reacting in those moments of stress.

Melissa is a holistic therapist who specialises in applied polyvagal theory and integrative somatic therapy. You can find out more about Melissa and her work at reclaiminghealthy.com

Melissa set Gwen and Kate an exercise to help them check-in and stay connected to their nervous systems on a regular basis, plus aid digestion!

We also reference our breathwork episodes, which you can listen to here:
Breathwork Part 1
Breathwork Part 2

Support Gwen & Kate by subscribing (or doing a one off month) to Patreon, from as little as £3. We'd love you forever. :)
