HSPs and The Polyvagal Theory of Stress with Sukie Baxter

Understanding the Polyvagal Theory of stress and how stress impacts your biology as an HSP. We'll dig into the concept of nervous system regulation and how HSPs can use it to turn their sensitivity into a superpower.

Sukie shares..."I would like to help HSPs understand that they are not broken or damaged and empower them with tools they can use to thrive as an HSP in a chaotic world that doesn't always value the inherent skills and abilities that we bring to the table. One of my favorite quotes ever is "It's not a measure of health to be well adjusted in a profoundly sick society." I firmly believe that it is by empowering each person to live from their own place of truth rather than conform to a contrived cultural norm that we will ultimately heal as a society."

Here are some questions answered in this event:

1. What is Polyvagal Theory and how might it help HSPs to understand it?

2. How might regulating the nervous system lower the challenges of sensitivity?

3. How can HSPs leverage Polyvagal Theory to enable their unique creative genius to thrive?

4. Also we had some discussions on the marginalized experience of the LGBTQ community and the black community and how those communities experience the impact of the lack of safety. These are important to understand as we work toward moving humanity forward.
