Responding vs. Reacting | Live By Heart Today Show #29

LBHT #29 - Dawn and Wendy have a heart to heart about how when we sense a threat, it naturally puts us in a fight, flight or freeze mode, which is a specific response necessary to keep our selves safe. This is known as the: Sympathetic Response.

There are also physiological responses in relation to that natural reaction that increases our heart rate and breathing as our body prepares to dump sugar into our bloodstream so we can take evasive action.

The opposite mode is known as the Parasympathetic Response which is a resting state when our body is calm because we feel safe and this allows us to renew our energy.

Over time, the Sympathetic Response becomes really draining and Scientists are now discovering that this stress response is what underlies most diseases but when we can shift into the Parasympathetic Response, that's when growth happens.

Join us as we have an organic heart to heart about the mind, body and soul. Each show is a self-contained mini-discourse that progressively compounds over its Season to support an over-arching topic of Self development.

This show is a part of the Season 3 topic: Being Proactive.

Live By Heart Today is hosted by Dawn Spiegelberg, a Medical Intuitive and Coherence Coach and Wendy R Wolf, a Professional Transformation Facilitator. Produced and distributed by Retro Earth Studio.
