The Nervous System Reset: Heal Trauma, Resolve Chronic Pain, and Regulate Your Emotions with the Power of the Vagus Nerve by Jessica Maguire 

US pub date - 8/13/24

I was hit by a speeding drunk driver as a pedestrian many years ago. That led to numerous surgeries (14), early onset arthritis, nerve damage, loss of range of movement, and complex PTSD (along with other not-so-fun losses). A couple of years after this, I was diagnosed with IBS and wondered if it was connected. Once I reached 29/30, I had developed gastroparesis on top of the IBS. I’m 51 now and I’ve not had a flare-up of IBS in a few years, but the gastroparesis strikes more frequently. 

I didn’t grow up in a home where mind-body connection was ever alluded to - it’s only as I’ve gotten older, lived more, and read more that such a connection has been known to me, and I’ve taken some steps to honoring that - meditation, breath work, and EMDR therapy. I’ve also only recently learned of the vagus nerve, and the possibilities now seem even more hopeful. 

With this new awareness, I was very pleased when Balance reached out, inviting me to read an early copy of this book - I actually downloaded this and began reading during a flare-up of the gastroparesis, and read this eagerly hoping to find some suggestions to implement. 

This is an extremely comprehensive guide, written in an educational and compassionate style that is both informative and engaging. The author provides comprehensive scientific information, exercises for the reader to partake of, and case studies. There is so much positive information within these pages and I personally found it an extremely worthwhile read;  this is one I will definitely buy for my own bookshelf. 

While reading and trying some of the exercises, I look forward to incorporating even more of the suggestions in this book. 

Very strong recommendation from me. 

Thank you to Balance and NetGalley for the DRC

On the plane they say to put the oxygen mask on yourself first then help others. The idea is so that you can function adequately and only then will you be of help to others. The same principle applies for everyday life.

This has been an amazing year and I’m so glad so many people have joined me on this journey to a healthy lifestyle! This week I will have the chance to share our program with someone seeking better health. I will NOT tell them they need to make a change, and I will NOT pressure them to change their life or think negatively about who they are. I WILL offer the opportunity to feel better and live better within the goals of the person- not my goals for them! This isn't a shake program. This isn't a sale. This isn't a supplement. This isn’t even just about weight loss! That’s only the tip of the Optavia iceberg! This IS about changing your habits for true transformation in mind, body and finances! Many people might be looking for a quick fix diet, but that’s not what this is. I love to partner with friends who ARE ready to change their WHOLE lives and to watch them achieve THEIR GOALS. Do I believe you should have goals for better health? Yes! Do I believe you are a terrible person if you don’t? OF COURSE NOT! But I’m here to help just like someone helped me. Not ready?... that's ok! No pressure here..... but WHEN you ARE ready for true change...fasten your seatbelts, it’s going to be an amazing ride.😉 If you are ready then MESSAGE ME TODAY! And if you are still reading, thank you for hearing me out and letting me share my passion! Please click on one of those cute emoji buttons or feel free to share this post! Thanks!❤️ #healthcoach #optimalhealth #lifelongtransformationonehealthyhabitatatime #healthmindandbody #healthandwellness #itsnotadiet #healthjourney #whatareyouwaitingfor #BetterTogether

It’s a known fact that regular exercise has health benefits, such as strengthening of the heart and bones, muscles, weight management, and decreasing the risk of some diseases. Researchers have discovered how a single moderate exercise session can serve as an anti-inflammatory as well. The results have significant promise for treating chronic diseases such as […]

“Expect to encounter adversity in your life, remembering that you live in a deeply fallen world. Stop trying to find a way that circumvents difficulties.” – Sarah Young Serve the Lord with gladness, come before His presence with singing. – Psalm 100:2 When I realized that pastoral ministry was not for me and that we are all called to some sort of mission, life began to change for me.
