Learning to gracefully ride the vicissitudes of our nervous system, can become a human superpower.

The nervous system is getting a lot of press these days in wellness circles and beyond. Our inboxes are flooded with offers of free nervous system resets and practices promising endless calm and regulation.

This awakening is hopeful and it's exciting to see masses realizing what yoga practitioners have known for eons: our minds, bodies, energy, and spirit are deeply intertwined. But like many ancient teachings that have been given a modern twist, there are a lot of misunderstandings when it comes to our nervous system.

Specifically, there is an idea in the popular public that humans need to be calm and regulated at all times and that heightened responses, such as fight and flight are "bad." This is far from true and in fact, learning to gracefully ride the vicissitudes of our nervous system can become a human superpower.

Award-winning author and renowned yoga educator, Sarah Ezrin, is on a mission to dispel the myth that we should constantly be striving for calm.

She is honored to join long-time friend Tracee Stanley and the Radiant Rest community to uncover what it truly means to have a healthy nervous system.
