Heal Your Nervous System

The 5–Stage Plan to Reverse Nervous System Dysregulation

De: Linnea Passaler

Relieve anxiety, burnout, feelings of overwhelm, and chronic physical symptoms by healing your dysregulated nervous system with this 5-stage roadmap based on the latest science.

Dr. Linnea Passaler has helped thousands globally in her digital health program address a wide range of symptoms associated with nervous system dysregulation—from mental symptoms, including anxiety, burnout, and brain fog, to physical symptoms, such as digestive issues, chronic inflammation, and fatigue. In Heal Your Nervous System, Dr. Passaler presents her 5-stage plan, developed over the last decade, to equip you with the knowledge to understand and regulate your unique nervous system.

Despite its advances, conventional medicine has often overlooked the importance of nervous system regulation in our health and quality of life. This is especially true for highly sensitive individuals, who may be more susceptible to a dysregulated nervous system. Instead of merely treating the symptoms, Dr. Passaler shows you how to make a profound shift from reactive treatment to proactive healing.

Grounded in recent scientific advances in neurobiology, chronic stress, trauma, and sensitivity, this is not a short-term or one-size-fits-all solution, but a comprehensive strategy to tackle the source of your symptoms, and restore your physical, cognitive, and emotional health.

In Heal Your Nervous System, you will discover:

• How anxiety, trauma, and chronic stress are not just “in your head,” but manifest in all areas of your health
• How to assess your current level of nervous system dysregulation
• Why nervous system dysregulation can cause both mental and physical symptoms
• How your individual sensitivity profile and past experiences came together to tip your nervous system into a state of dysregulation
• The four most common mistakes people make in their healing journey, and how to avoid them
• Top essential habits that support your nervous system during your healing journey
• Simple practices, exercises, and routines that progressively reverse nervous system dysregulation
• How to organize the most effective practices into the right order, a sequence that supports your healing without getting overwhelmed

Your nervous system and health are far more adaptable than you think. With Heal Your Nervous System as your guidebook, you can navigate a fresh path, reverse symptoms, and progressively move towards a robust mind and body.

Time to see life through a new lens if you're stuck in flight or flight.

I learned the first step and confused by the rest

I got the first phase, awareness. But the other 4 phases have got me feeling like I don’t know what to do after becoming aware of my tension. A lot of this seems like useless rambling, like just get to the point and tell me what to do.

absolutely fantastic

buy it. it's really good. like, really, really good. exceeded expectations by a lot.

This is the book I've needed all along!

After seeing so many doctors and trying so many things to get well...Finally, this book has exactly what I've needed all along.

There are key bits of info

The audio experience feels like you're listening to something written by AI and the reader sounds as though they are trying to create a calm affect but it's distractingly flat and robotic. Little to no inflection and far slower than it needs to be. It's not fixed by speeding it up, as that creates an awkward experience.

The content has key bits of information that do help. It is buried in fluff.

I am indeed following the plan, as I believe it has been working. I do think it could be a good start to this topic. The problem, I suppose is the way the information was presented (the voice, the AI-sentence structures, the fluff).

I skimmed the book for main ideas first then re-read it a few times to gain more. Had to skip the parts that were re-traumatizing as I already have deep knowledge of trauma and how it can affect you.
