What if one of the most powerful parenting tools you have is your own nervous system? In this episode, somatic science expert and co-author of Manifestation for Dummies Brian Trzaskos explains how the body, mind, and beliefs work together, and why that matters for your health, your relationships, and the way you show up for your daughter. Brian moved from physical therapy into the science of manifestation. He breaks down the neuroscience behind changing your beliefs, the link between stress, tension, and chronic pain, and how a parent’s nervous system shapes a child’s. You’ll leave with practical tools you can use today, including self-massage, movement, breathwork, sound frequencies, and drumming.
