Welcome to Part 1 of our 5-part series, Why Understanding Your Nervous System Is the Key to Lasting Positive Change and Healing. In this episode, Dr. Ashleigh Moreland and co-host David Masterton dive into the foundations of the nervous system and why understanding it is essential to transforming our lives, relationships, and mental health.

Dr. Ashleigh explains how our nervous system’s survival responses – fight, flight, freeze, and fawn – are activated by stress and past traumas and how they impact everything from daily decisions to deeper emotional reactions. David adds insight and humour as they explore what it really means to be “in survival mode” and how we often find ourselves stuck in states that no longer serve us.

If you’ve ever felt reactive, stressed, or on edge without fully understanding why, this episode will illuminate the hidden forces at play within your own body. As you listen, you’ll gain tools and insight into how awareness of your body’s signals can guide you toward genuine healing and a balanced life.
