26. Polyvagal theory & nervous system safety for dizziness & pain recovery: interview w/ Tanner Murtagh

I am so pleased to welcome Tanner Murtagh, MSW, RSW to my channel to give us a crash course on polyvagal theory and nervous system safety. Tanner is the director of Pain Psychotherapy Canada and specializes in helping people recover from chronic physical symptoms like pain, dizziness, fatigue, digestive issues and more. In this interview, we dive into why "messages of safety" are such a common refrain in healing from chronic neural circuit disorders. Even more importantly, we discuss why so many of you don't believe yourselves when you try to tell yourself you're safe. Tanner gives us a breakdown of how to start noticing and shifting your nervous system states, an essential component of healing from chronic dizziness.
