<p>&quot;When You Get To the Root You Can Pull Out the Weeds&quot;</p><p><br></p><p>In today’s episode, I speak with world renowned scientist &amp; researcher, Dr. Stephen Porges, author of Polyvagal Theory and Deb Dana, world renowned clinician, author, and consultant. Both are co-founders of the Polyvagal Institute. Some of the questions, I ask are:</p><p>1. What is the vagus nerve and why is it so critical to our emotional and physical health?</p><p>2. Why do women &amp; marginalized populations suffer from more chronic symptoms than anyone other group?</p><p>3. How does having a sense of safety affect our physical health?</p><p>4.
