In this week’s wisdom episode, we explore Chapter 4 (Regulate Your Nervous System) of The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Toolkit and dive into the essential connection between our nervous system, hormonal health, and trauma-informed healing.We reflect on our conversations with Allegra Foxlie (a trauma and hormone specialist, podcast host, embodiment expert, and author of HTR: The Hormone Tension Release) and Paula Rarick (an advocate for hormonal sensitivity and brain-body integration) to explore how nervous system regulation can be the foundation for sustainable wellbeing.What You'll Learn:Why the nervous system is key to hormonal and emotional regulation, especially for ADHDers.How trauma and early stress dysregulate the nervous and endocrine systems, leading to autoimmune conditions.How nervous system patterns shape hormonal responses, epigenetics, and long-term resilience.Practical tools like breathwork, vagus nerve activation, and habit shifts to support daily regulation.Why cortisol can feel addictive, and why calm may feel unfamiliar or unsafe for some.The value of combining talk therapy and body-based practices for deep healing.How ADHD, autism, BPD, and hormonal sensitivity share common nervous system traits.🌟 My new book, The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Toolkit, is available to preorder here 🌟Timestamps: 00:26 - Introducing the ADHD Nervous System03:36 - Exploring how early life Trauma impacts the Nervous System10:14 - Learning Healing Techniques for Trauma19:42 - The Nervous System's Vital Role in Hormonal Sensitivity22:59 - Looking at the Nervous System in a new wayIf you're curious about how your nervous system might be shaping your emotions, hormones, and daily wellbeing, you can also watch Kate's recent webinar on this topic for even more tools and guidance [here].Links and Resources:Missed our ADHD Women’s Summer Series?
