What Does Your Nervous System Control in Your Body? đ§ âĄ
Your nervous system is like your bodyâs âmaster control center.â
It constantly sends signals that decide how your body functions every second of the day.
It controls:
đ Your heart rate â how fast or slow your heart beats
đ Your breathing â deep, calm breaths or short, shallow breathing
đ Your stress response â whether your body is calm or in âfight or flightâ mode
đ Your sleep cycle â when you feel sleepy and how deep you sleep
đ Your digestion â how well your body processes food
đ Your focus & emotions â calm thinking or overthinking
When your nervous system is balanced, your body feels:
⨠Calm
⨠Energized
⨠Focused
⨠Able to recover and sleep well
But when it is over-activated by stressâŚ
your body stays in alert mode even when you are trying to rest.
đ Good health is not just about the bodyâit starts from a calm nervous system.
