In this enlightening webinar, our guest speaker, Natalie Banwarth (LCSW-C) delves into the intricacies of nervous system dysregulation and its profound impact on our physical and emotional states. Dysregulation goes beyond agitation and frustration, encompassing the mismatch of our responses to situations. Join us as we discuss the autonomic nervous system's parasympathetic and sympathetic components, and how they intricately control various bodily processes, from heart rate to digestive functions. We examine the extensive impacts of dysregulation on memory, learning outcomes, emotional regulation, and physical health. Chronic stress can interfere with critical brain functions, inhibiting learning and even altering neural connections. But fear not! We discuss how neuroplasticity offers hope, allowing us to rewire our brains for resilience through mindfulness practices. This video serves as a valuable resource for educators, students, mental health professionals, and anyone keen on understanding the intricate interplay between our nervous system and overall well-being. Stay tuned for a deeper exploration into how we can foster a regulated state and unlock our full potential in both academic and personal spheres.
