#333 Nervous System Dysregulation: What It Really Means and How to Heal It with Dr. Kelly Livingston

Welcome to How Humans Heal. In this episode, I'm talking with Dr. Kelly Livingston about nervous system regulation and dysregulation — what these terms mean, and what we can do to regulate our nervous system. Dr. Kelly is the founder of Roots Deep Medicine, and is a licensed naturopathic doctor, like me. She is host of the Vital Spirit Podcast, where she explores nervous system regulation, the gut-brain connection, and psychoneuroimmunoendocrinology. Dysregulation is more often mentioned in scientific as well as public audiences, as a way to honor the experience of having a human nervous system, and reframing the way we discuss mental health and mind-body medicine. Many approaches we use in naturopathic medicine have been shown to be beneficial for regulating the nervous system, which Dr. Kelly and I explore in this episode. We're here to help you!
