Heal Your Nervous System: The 5–Stage Plan to Reverse Nervous System Dysregulation Hardcover – January 9, 2024

This isn't the first time I've been introduced to working on regulating the nervous system. I've had loads of success working with somatic, body-based practices when it comes to anxiety, auto-immune issues, and constant self-judgement. But this book brings it ALL together with so much compassion and a framework that, within the first few chapters, brought forth a wave of self-acceptance and a heavy exhale of relief. I finally realized I never had to be at war with myself. I just needed to learn how to meet my unique wiring with understanding and acceptance.It's comprehensive without being overwhelming. The reminders to go slow and take things one step at a time are greatly appreciated. It's counterintuitive, but it's really the only way this kind of work really settles into the body. This is the road map I've been looking for and I'm so, so glad to have it in my possession! I would highly recommend it for anyone who knows this work is for them, who often feels "on edge", and like it's all too much. This book gives not just solutions, but also a comprehensive overview of WHY those feelings are so persistent in the most clear and loving way. That mindset shift alone has been pure gold.

Actionable, effective, and comprehensive, with a systematic and science-based approach. Written and organized to be accessible to all, not laden with emotionally difficult anecdotes like some similar texts on trauma. The best resource I've found on regulating the nervous system, especially as it relates to those of us who are highly sensitive, healing from trauma, andor working as healers and creatives. Already recommending it to everyone I know and purchasing copies to give away to guests at my yoga retreat in a few weeks.

I was thankfully led to this book by Central Sensitization or Central Pain Sensitization Syndrome searches online. I was looking for the latest research in professional journals and hoping for information to help me talk to medical practitioners about what is happening to my body and ALL my senses becoming extremely more sensitive. Dr. Linnea hit the bullseye with the first couple chapters as she describes the kind of situation where we cannot find any medical person with helpful attitudes and suggestions much less answers. I credit The Lord God for helping me get started with some psychological helps and healthy diet changes, and it's fabulous to have been led to this book, a huge piece of the Me Puzzle is finally here! A neurologist told me that in olden days, women were thought to have episodes called the vapors. Modern research into the brain and gut connection is telling us that central dysregulation is a complex matter involving the entire anatomy, and we are individually affected various ways for various reasons. That's why this particular book is especially important. Dr Linnea doesn't try to make a cookie cutter one size fits all answer. I'm probably going to be working on getting myself stable until my last breath, but now I'm not alone in that process. Someone finally REALLY understands and cares about this form of suffering, and that in itself is a huge relief that I felt right away while reading the first couple chapters. If that makes sense to you then buy the book. The free resources and access to the latest research IS a treatment for Central Sensitization of all varieties. Maybe one day the medical science community will agree on the label, but for now, Central Nervous System Dysregulation explains it better than Central Pain or Sensitivity. Too many doctors think it means being a hypochondriac or too touchy or imaginary pain complaints. Bravo Dr. Linnea ❤️❤️❤️This title can be applicable to ANYONE who has an addiction issue. It is a versatile "plan" with great information for any and every person's WHOLE being.

Dr. Linnea's book, 'Heal Your Nervous System', is desperately needed on a global scale. I've eagerly awaited its release since the moment she announced her writing it. Today, it arrived and I'm thrilled!I have personally experienced working with Dr. Linnea's 5-Stage Plan and can attest to the transformative power that comes from fully embracing her method as outlined in this book. Once I learned about nervous system dysregulation it was clear to me how much it impacted every area of my life. It was the root cause of much, if not all, my discomfort (physical, emotional, mental, social, energetic, and spiritual). The more I understood, embraced, and accepted my own nervous system and learned how to regulate it, the happier, freer, and more productive I became.I firmly believe, as a witness to humanity's current level of chaos, division, violence, cruelty, malice, dis-ease, addictions, discord, and disharmony that at the very core of it all is millions of people engaging in the world with dysregulated nervous systems.Dr. Linnea's book is a salve that can help calm, soothe, and heal this societal wound by helping us recognize, acknowledge, accept, then dispel our limiting beliefs and behavior patterns that no longer serve us and embody not only a better way of living, but a better way of BEING.But we need to be willing to do the work. This level of personal growth isn't easy, but it's necessary, rewarding, and ultimately, life-altering.This evolution toward mind-body integration utilizing Dr. Linnea's evidence-based path is essential if we are to survive as a species. Written with compassion and deep wisdom gained from personal experience, Dr. Linnea's 'Heal Your Nervous System' is well-structured, thoughtful, and accessible to the general reader.I believe it's a must have for every medical professional and layperson alike.I wish I could give it more than 5 stars!
