Once they change, the way they understand others and act changes too, which greatly benefits the people who work for them and improves society. KEY TAKEAWAYS How you behave impacts whether people feel safe, which in turn affects their behaviour. The autonomic nervous system drives our behaviour. If it is out of balance how we feel, and act is too. Your nervous system can be fixed. Most neurodiverse people have nervous systems that have become disorganised. The nervous system has 3 not 2 pathways. The vagus nerve splits in two. If you feel numb and are only going through the motions, work on your nervous system. If you´ve been in fight or flight for too long your gut doesn´t work properly.If your body lives in a state where it does not feel safe, e.g. there´s not enough food, it changes the way your brain is wired. BEST MOMENTS ‘Understanding how the body communicates with the brain is critical.’ ‘When the ventral vagal is out of reach you´re always striving but never satisfied.’ ‘The most important thing for the nervous system is another person's nervous system. ’ ABOUT THE GUEST Andrea Edmonson is a Performance Consultant & Coach who helps high achievers optimise their well-being and performance using a unique, neuroscience-driven approach.
