After being diagnosed with an acute auto immune illness that left her body unable to create energy to do any daily activities, Jennifer Olley was left to find a way to heal herself as the medical community said there was no cure. Starting with a book from a Wales physician, she changed her diet, then quickly realized the key to wellness is through regulating the nervous system.

In this episode, Jennifer explains how our bodies know how to heal itself and we all need to take self care seriously as it is not a luxury, it is a necessity. Everyday is a spa day, was her mantra that got her through healing herself. We need to regulate our nervous system so our immune system can turn on and the body can heal itself.

Examples of ways to regulate the nervous system mentioned in this episode:

• Qi Gong
• Meditation
• Laying Still
• Breathwork
• Box Breathing
• Wim Hof app or other breathwork apps
• Cold Immersion

Jennifer uses the analogy of a traffic light to ask yourself, What does my Heart, Mind and Body say about this? Red is stop, Green is go. All areas need to work together. Listen to them.
