What does it actually mean to have a “dysregulated nervous system” - and why are so many people talking about it right now? In this episode of the Peak Revival Podcast, I am joined by somatic facilitator, yoga teacher, and breathwork instructor Melissa to unpack the science behind the nervous system, stress response, vagus nerve, [...]

Why do you feel exhausted, flat, anxious, unmotivated, or emotionally numb — even when your life looks “fine” on paper? In this episode, I break down the hidden impact of chronic stress on your brain chemistry and explains the four key neurotransmitters that burnout and long-term stress deplete: dopamine, serotonin, GABA, and norepinephrine. You’ll learn [...]

  Negative self-talk isn’t always a loud or dramatic voice, often it’s the small voice inside our head saying, “here we go again,” or “I always mess this up,” or “my body is too broken,” or “what’s the point?” And the frustrating part is you can be doing everything right on paper, healthy eating, supplements, [...]
