How to balance mood and mental health through physical health
*The next time you feel some kind of way, take a moment before you fight that feeling. It might just be a perfectly rational response.*
*But what if those moods last longer than a couple hours? What if they go into days, weeks, months or even years? What if you get stuck there? Does that mean you have a chemical imbalance in the brain? Are you dopamine or serotonin deficient? *
*Turns out that’s not a thing. We used to think that but that’s not what the science supports today.*
*We might be in an adapted or more accurately a maladapted state. In other words your nervous system, brain and body have conspired to keep you safe and help you survive based on your experiences in the world. And because the brain lives in a dark cave and only has memories to make decisions with, it doesn’t always make the best choices. *
*Ayurveda, the sister science of yoga, can shine some light on some of this with a little different perspective and offer a pathway to begin to balance some of these things as they come up in our experiences.*
*It’s time to stop working out and start working IN. You found the Work IN podcast for fit-preneurs and their health conscious clients. This podcast is for resilient wellness professionals who want to expand their professional credibility, shake off stress and thrive in a burnout-proof career with conversations on the fitness industry, movement, nutrition, sleep, mindset, nervous system health, yoga, business and so much more. *
