Soothe Your Nervous System & Restore Balance with Nahid de Belgeonne
Manage episode 509200291 series 3373700
Ever felt wired, restless, or unable to switch off; yet not sure how to calm yourself down? In this episode of The Happier Life Project, we explore what it really means to self-soothe and support the nervous system with guest Nahid de Belgeonne; somatic movement coach, breath and yoga teacher, and widely known as “the nervous system whisperer.”
With over two decades of experience, Nahid has developed 'The Human Method' and 'The Soothe Programme', helping high-achieving women reconnect with a sense of safety on a cellular level. She’s also the author of 'Soothe: The Book Your Nervous System Has Been Longing For', The Happier Life Project’s very first Book of the Month (for October)!
In this episode, Nahid shares why true wellness begins in the body’s innate wisdom rather than the mind, the role of micro rests to counterbalance daily stress, and why she encourages moving emotions through the body instead of sitting in them. Nahid also discusses, with host Gabby Sanderson, why modern gyms can overstimulate the nervous system and cultivate an unhealthy rather than healthy culture. Alongside, Nahid offers some suggestions for different movements to help process different emotions, plus suggests some sneaky techniques for taking restorative min-breaks during the workday, without anyone noticing.
Tune in to learn simple, science-backed ways to soothe your system, release held stress, and find a calmer, more balanced rhythm in your life.
(*And keep an eye out for Friday’s bonus episode with more from Nahid!)
