Immune System Overdrive
Stress and trauma can lead to an overactive immune response, as the brain becomes hypersensitive to perceived threats. When combined with physical triggers like infections or mold, this can create a lasting legacy in the brain, causing it to react strongly to even minor stimuli. Understanding this differential activation is crucial for addressing chronic health issues and breaking the cycle of overdefense.In this clip

Is it true that the nervous system needs a different input at the right time to change a reaction, as discussed in episode #273: Overcoming Challenges and Birthing a New You with Christine Hassler and the clip Navigating Triggers? For example, if a person has a fear or phobia and their body becomes reactive when they encounter a trigger, would a solution be to try to calm the body with breathwork at that moment? Would this approach provide a different input to the nervous system so that over time it stops being activated by the original trigger? Is this how Pavlov's dogs experiment is used as a tool for changing the nervous system's responses?
