Polyvagal Theory: How Trauma Shapes Our Nervous System

The Polyvagal theory tells you that the responses are really a degrading of their evolutionary history. And the portals for retuning are portals in which the nervous system can detect cues of safety, not through intention, but through literally, again reflexive features.
Ever wondered how your body responds to stress and trauma? In this fascinating episode of 'Weekly Infusion', Dr. Stephen Porges, the mind behind the Polyvagal Theory, joins Dr. Drew and Dr. Bruce Heischober for an eye-opening discussion. Alongside them is clinical psychologist Dr. Cheryl Arutt, who sheds light on the intricate relationship between trauma and our nervous system. Dr.
Porges breaks down the evolution of the human autonomic nervous system, offering insights into how emotions like love and fear can physically affect us. The conversation touches on the sensory role of the vagus nerve and the importance of feeling safe to help retune our nervous system. Listeners will also hear about the potential benefits of acupuncture in regulating the autonomic system and how mathematical models can explain its complex functions.
With a mix of scientific knowledge and practical advice, this episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about the connections between our emotions and physical health. Whether you're dealing with trauma yourself or just eager to learn more about how our bodies work, 'Weekly Infusion' provides a compassionate and informative look at these critical issues.
