Every day there’s a new health trend that goes in or out of the spotlight and some are incredible, backed by real science and human data while others are purely just clever marketing!

We’ve all been told stress is ‘just in your head.’ But science now shows it’s actually in your body — in the way your nervous system constantly decides whether you’re safe or under threat. Polyvagal theory maps out these pathways, and it helps us understand why conditions like PMS, infertility, perimenopause symptoms, and chronic pain are so often linked to stress and trauma. In this episode of Wellness Women Radio Dr Andrea & Dr Ashleigh dive into Polyvagal theory and how we can use this insight to help us find safety in our body to help us heal, connect and grow!
