Heal Relationships: Discover the Power of Nervous System Awareness with Amy Guerrero

In this insightful episode of the Confident Sober Women podcast, we delve deep into the intricate connection between our nervous systems and how we show up in relationships, especially in the context of long-term recovery. Our guest, Amy, shares her journey as a highly sensitive individual who learned to "read the room" from a young age to avoid being a burden. We explore the concept of neuroception - how our bodies unconsciously sense danger and respond, often without our awareness. Amy reveals how alcohol became a tool for downregulation in her past. We discuss the importance of recognizing these bodily sensations and energy exchanges in our relationships. The conversation touches on the challenges of communicating these feelings effectively and the significance of developing this awareness for healthier interactions. The episode also covers: How childhood wounds manifest in adult relationshipsThe value of speaking up about our feelingsTechniques for asking good questions to foster deeper connectionsAmy's journey of spiritual growth and nervous system "regrooving"Connect with Amy on Instagram @regulatewithamy to continue the conversation.Support the showDon’t forget to subscribe, rate & share this episode with a sober woman or someone suffering from anxiety, depression, ADHD, sleep problems and negative thought patterns who needs to hear she is not alone. Oh, and by the way, if you didn’t know, my remote Neurofeedback Therapy program is up and running.
