Bitesize Biohack: How To Be More Resilient, Calm & Focussed
2023-09-28
Angela presents a biohack edition featuring Eliza Kingsford from episode 261, exploring the profound impact of our nervous system on our thoughts, emotions, and actions, emphasising the importance of being in a regulated state to access a flow state and enhance creativity. Eliza explains that carrying a disregulated nervous system into a task or activity can hinder productivity and lead to distractions like food, scrolling, or checking email. By recognising and understanding our own nervous system states, such as safety and connection, fight or flight, and shutdown, we can better navigate our reactions and behaviours.
TAKEAWAYS
- Our nervous system plays a crucial role in our thoughts, feelings, actions, and creativity. Being in a flow state requires a regulated nervous system.
- If we carry a disregulated nervous system into a flow state, it will hinder our productivity and creativity. Disregulation can lead to engaging in shallow tasks or seeking distractions.
- Recognising and being aware of our nervous system is essential. It drives our behaviour and how we interact with others. Different cues can activate different states in our nervous system.
- Mapping out the flavours of our nervous system can help us understand our own unique states. This involves describing what makes us feel safe and connected, as well as what activates our fight or flight response or leads to shutdown.
BEST MOMENTS
"Being in a flow state requires a state of nervous system regulation."
"If you carry a disregulated nervous system into that state, it's not going to be productive."
"No one is immune to this. We all have a nervous system and all of them are picking up on cues all day long."
"It's just getting to know what's the state of your system, right? And bringing in as much description as possible to be able to describe that."
