A potential byproduct of the buzz around nervous system regulation is we can begin to view dysregulation as bad or wrong.
In reality, nervous system dysregulation is often the appropriate response to the situation at hand.
Like when:
💜You receive upsetting news about a friend’s health and cry
💜You experience waves of grief at the sudden end of an important relationship
💜You abruptly remove yourself from a work conversation after a colleague violates your physical boundaries
💜You feel anger while reading about people becoming homeless due to the cost of living crisis
Rather than trying to stay in a constant state of calm – an impossible, and even harmful goal – at this Sunday’s Nervous System Bootcamp I’ll teach you how to validate and support yourself in times of overwhelm.
After all, sometimes modern life feels like a lot because IT’S A LOT!
You’ll learn to move between our three nervous system states in a more optimal, resilient way:
💜Social Engagement (Ventral Vagal) – ‘I feel safe, connected and curious’
💜Fight, Flight, Fawn (Sympathetic) – ‘I’m mobilised and reactive’
💜Freeze/Collapse (Dorsal Vagal) – ‘I’m overwhelmed and shut down’
When we learn to interpret nervous system states we become more attuned and compassionate towards ourselves, and towards others.
We start to make sense of our stress, our anxiety, our chronic procrastination.
We better understand what our body needs from moment to moment.
Through somatic exercises, restorative yoga, yoga nidra (yogic sleep meditation) and a liberal dollop of nervous system theory, you’ll walk away feeling:
💜More confident you can handle stress
💜More in control of your anxiety
💜More compassion for yourself and why you struggle

The vagus nerve runs from the brain to nearly every internal organ in the body.
It sends information from the gut, liver, heart, & lungs to the brain, & from the brain back to the body.
It helps to control digestion, heart rate, voice, mood & the immune system.
It’s kind of a big deal.
Evidence indicates that improving vagal tone can help with:
💜Epilepsy
💜Diabetes
💜Drug-resistant depression
💜Heart disease & hypertension
💜PTSD & C-PTSD
💜Inflammatory autoimmune conditions like Crohn’s disease & rheumatoid arthritis
Here’s how Carry Om Yoga can help you improve your vagal tone:
💜Yoga - The vagus nerve is the main nerve of the parasympathetic nervous system. By encouraging relaxation, mindful breathing, & presence, yoga can help move your body from its fight/flight response into the parasympathetic rest/digest/connect state.
💜Nervous System Bootcamp - Low vagal tone means less tolerance for stress, change & challenges. The Nervous System Bootcamp (July 14th, 2 spots remaining!) teaches you to:
- Identify your nervous system patterns
- Build confidence in handling stress
- Control your anxiety
- Have more compassion for why you struggle with nervous system regulation.
💜Embodied Healing Course - Coming to the studio this August, Embodied Healing is a NEW 10-week course combining:
- Polyvagal-based Safe & Sound Protocol (designed by Dr Stephen Porges)
- Somatic practices
- Yoga nidra (yogic sleep)
- Weekly trauma-informed nervous system workbooks
- Facebook, email & text support.
