Would you like to know how to feel better when things go terribly wrong? Many of us suffer heartache. When things happen in our lives that we are struggling to deal with, it can feel hard to know where to begin. In this conversation, Justin is joined by Dr Gemma Newman to share his top tips for overcoming adversity and managing the nervous system.
Justin shares some of the neuroscience behind anxiety and three practical tips that will allow us to move through our struggles in a healthier way.
Consider the areas in your life where there may be volatility, uncertainty (things feel out of your control), complexity (there is more to deal with than you have the capacity for) ambiguity (unresolved emotions and events) and these could be areas that your awareness can draw on to change. Justin calls this VUCA
Justin advised that when things feel impossible, just aim to remember the importance of these THREE KEY POINTS:
1. Sleep
2. Sharing (with loved ones, a therapist, or even a journal, to beings chaos out on paper).
3. Scheduling (making time for nature, rest, fun, love or anything else that could spark joy).
This is such a great chat between two leading professionals in the world of well-being and the human capacity to heal and evolve through trauma and poor health.

As someone who recovered from the severe trauma of losing my son, I know the importance of finding some ease within the body. I witnessed Joshua's last breaths, and this image aroused PTSD and severe anxiety and depression.
Accessing the Vagus Nerve and Polyvagal Theory was critical in my recovery. It allowed me to find a little ease whilst in tandem, I built a meditation practice and sought therapy.
This video is recorded live with a group participating in my online course (www.remotetribe.co. uk), where we dive deep into the neuroscience of stress, mindfulness, and recovery.
Recovery from whatever loss or stress you have suffered is possible. It does require a desire to do the work and a commitment to show up. Remember to seek help, speak to friends and find a therapist or coach that is right for you.
I would love to hear how you get on. Justin.
