Nervous System Regulation: Why Trauma Controls Your Behavior

from Rooted Conversations with Mitch Webb

Many people struggle with anxiety, emotional triggers, people pleasing, and relationship stress without realizing that the real cause may be nervous system dysregulation. In this powerful conversation, nervous system educator and somatic coach Britt Laxton explains how nervous system regulation can transform trauma healing and emotional regulation.When the nervous system becomes stuck in survival mode because of trauma or developmental trauma, the body begins to react with anxiety, fear, shame, overthinking, and emotional shutdown. Learning about nervous system regulation helps people understand why these patterns happen and how trauma is often stored in the body.Through somatic awareness and nervous system healing, it becomes possible to break survival patterns and develop emotional balance, safety, and healthier relationships.What You Will Learn In This Video What nervous system regulation really meansWhy trauma gets stored in the bodyHow survival mode controls emotions and behaviorThe connection between trauma and emotional regulationHow somatic healing helps regulate the nervous systemWhy understanding your nervous system helps healingAbout Britt Laxton:Britt Laxton is a nervous system educator and somatic coach who helps women break unhealthy cycles, regulate their nervous system, heal trauma, and build emotional regulation.Website: https://brittlaxton.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@brittlaxton555Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brittlaxton/Discover Your Nervous System State:Take the quiz to discover your primary nervous system state through simple multiple choice questions.Once you complete it, you will receive personalized results along with free resources including an explanation video, a practice exercise, and an invitation to work with Mitch.👉 Quiz Link: https://mitch-webb.involve.me/nervous-system-state-quizConnect With Mitch Webb:Website: https://mitchwebb.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/mitch.webb.503/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kmitchwebb/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kmitchwebb/
