In this episode of The Revolution of Being, Angie and her co-host explore how the state of your nervous system influences your capacity to heal. They break down the science behind nervous system dysregulation, the effects of chronic stress, and the vital role of the vagus nerve in restoring balance. This conversation sheds light on the link between trauma and chronic illness, why mindset matters, and how nervous system health impacts everything from inflammation to emotional resilience. Listeners will walk away with practical self-regulation tools, signs to watch for, and a reminder that healing isn’t just about protocols—it’s also about joy, connection, and nervous system safety.
