Know Your Nervous System 🧠 (For Parents & Caregivers)

Have you ever found yourself wondering…
“Why is my child reacting like this?”
“Why do small things turn into big emotions?”

The answer isn’t in behaviour alone —
it’s in the nervous system driving it.

Children don’t yet have the brain development or skills to understand and regulate what they’re feeling.
But when you understand their brain, everything begins to shift.

This workshop is designed to help adults better understand and support their children’s nervous systems using simple, practical neuroscience.

You’ll learn how to:
• Recognise your child’s nervous system state in real time
• Understand what’s underneath emotional reactions (not just the behaviour)
• Respond in ways that reduce overwhelm — not escalate it
• Support emotional regulation and build long-term resilience
• Model calm, regulated responses your child can learn from

This isn’t about managing behaviour —
it’s about understanding the biology that drives it.

When you understand your child’s nervous system, you stop guessing…
and start responding with clarity, confidence, and consistency.

📍 Mundaring, WA
📅 Saturday 18 April
⏰ 9:45am – 12:00pm

If you want to better understand your child, yourself or anyone you love — and feel more confident in how you support them — this workshop is for you.

Please get in touch with the wonderful Sarah from Arcadia Holistic Learning to book in for this upcoming event. You can contact myself or Sarah if you have any questions.

Hope to see you there!

Happy brain training 🧠 💪

I responded to an emergency 2 days ago.

I was given only a small amount of information about what I was responding to.

On my way to the emergency, I found myself filling in all the gaps about the things I didn't know.
"I need to do this..."
"They have probably done this..."
"I'll do this if this happens..."
"What if..."

Then I told myself to stop and to consciously focus on that very moment instead.
• The things I am feeling in my hands
• The things I am seeing in front of me
• The sounds I was hearing

I chose to stay out of my head and be exactly where I was instead!

Why did I stop planning ahead?

Because, it wasn't planning. I didn't have "real data" to plan from or make a decision on. I was planning and creating decisions based on the stories I had generated, the "fake data".

Typically, this is what the brain gets VERY good at doing - generating it's own stories to fill in the blanks of the unknown/uncertain.

The unconscious goal is to feel more certain amongst the uncertainty, however, the problem is that the thought doesn't account for what IS ACTUALLY happening or consider anyone else's response or reaction.

It's just inner dialogue giving you directions to the nearest bus stop - guess work, instead of looking at the real road map and reading the real data.

The next time you find yourself generating your own gap filler-innerers and creating predictions:

1️⃣ Pause - take a deep breath

2️⃣ Get out of your head and into your eyes or ears instead - notice what your one of your senses are showing you in real-time

3️⃣ Allow yourself to trust yourself. When you get real data from the actual event, let your senses do the work for you. Breathe, Look, Listen, Feel - THEN think to respond to the REAL data!

Train yourself to listen to REAL data from your senses (what you see, hear, feel, smell, taste) in the moment, and to not let FAKE data (generated thoughts) override the real data.

This is just one of the MANY powerful things that being in the moment helps with.

You are hard-wired to constantly scan and filter for anything that could impact your survival.

Most people recognise physical danger as a threat.
What many don’t realise is this:

Uncertainty is also a threat.

Once upon a time, uncertainty had real consequences.
If you didn’t know how to hunt, you didn’t eat.
If you couldn’t predict the behaviour of your group, you lost protection, warmth, connection and even the chance to share your genetic material.

That could mean death.

This wiring hasn’t changed. It’s still embedded in your biology today.

Your stress response system doesn’t distinguish between physical threat and cognitive threat.
To your brain:

Threat is threat.

So when you feel uncertain, your brain activates the same survival systems—cortisol release.

Cortisol influences the brain's ability to learn, respond, react, move, problem solve, reason, regulate and more!

When your brain feels uncertain, it will try to create certainty.

If real data isn’t available, it will generate it.

It does this by:
• pulling from past experiences
• making predictions
• forming expectations
• creating opinions
• building internal narratives
This is your brain trying to stabilise itself by generating it's own certainty (even if it's not true, it's something that might make sense and therefore stabilise the threat circuitry).

When we use these systems repeatedly without drawing on real-time data (what we see, hear, feel, smell, taste), something important occurs:

Your brain can get stuck in self-generated loops to fill in the uncertainty gaps.

These loops create feedback to the brain that can:
• increase cortisol
• increase emotional intensity
• dysregulate your nervous system
• keep your internal alarm system switched on

Over time, this can lead to:
□ reactivity
□ hypervigilance
□ reduced reasoning capacity
□ difficulty regulating emotions
□ reduced empathy
□ distorted threat detection
So what’s the solution?

Focus on REAL certainty within uncertainty.

Not by controlling the external world—but by noticing your internal state.
Your internal state is real-time data.

Start with two things:
• How activated is your nervous system right now?
• What emotional signals are present?

When you can accurately identify:
• your nervous system's level of activation
• your emotional state
You now have real data.

And with real data comes something powerful:

Choice.

YOU can consciously decide what to do next—rather than react automatically.
This is internal signal awareness.

The combination of awareness and what you do with that awareness is what:
• reduces emotional intensity
• stabilises your nervous system
• rebalances your brain’s safe/unsafe circuitry

You don’t need to eliminate uncertainty.

You just need to find certainty from what is happening inside of you.

Relying on others to feel physically and emotionally safe is not the same as seeking support to feel physically and emotionally safe.

Relying on others = expectation and a handballing of responsibility. When expectations aren't met, it turns into a blame game and the end internal result is self-helplessnes, accompanied with other feelings such as failure, rejection, inadequacy, unworthiness.

Asking others to support the processes you intentionally carry out to help yourself feel safe = co-regulation, connection, bonding, trust, loyalty and love.

Take note of which one you choose.
Each path takes you to very different locations.

Certainty comes from knowingness.
Knowingness came from a willingness to be curious.
☆The antidote to uncertainty is curiosity☆

This man deserves a gift basket for his advice!

Working with this guy everyday is the most incredible thing.
I couldn't ask for a better team member.

He reminds me daily of how special his role is, how not negotiable his presence is.

Every sad client that walks through the door, he helps.
Every scared client that walks through the door, he helps.
When someone cries or gets angry, he calms them.

It is such an honour to be able to work side by side with this beautiful dog and learn more every day.

Herx truly is one in a million!

We often make life-defining decisions in a moment of emotion — about love, work, or where we choose to live.
In that moment, our brain chemistry is different.
Our limbic system is activated.
Our brain interprets the world through the emotional state we’re in.

Decisions feel certain when the nervous system detects resolution and safety.
But the brain is plastic.
Neural networks reorganise.
Experiences reshape perception, values, tolerance, identity.

Years later, we’re still living inside a choice made by a past neural state — a past version of ourselves.
The decision was real.
It made sense at the time.
But the brain that made it has changed.

Practice seeing change as just feedback instead of failure, then watch how different the world and all of your decisions seem.

🏠 Threat where you sleep...

Not many people consider this a problem unless it's physical threat.
I want to highlight the neurobiology of emotional threat - specifically where you sleep.

Sharing a house with a person or people where you don't feel emotionally safe is a highly underestimated problem.

Even if you don’t fully understand what’s happening, your nervous system does and deserves your attention.

When you feel emotionally unsafe in your home, your nervous system works overtime to try and keep you safe in the only way it knows how - reaction or suppression.
You're not getting out of this one right?

The arguments, the tension, the silent treatment, the blame, the put downs, the looks, the shrugs, the crying, the shouting, the tight muscles, the nausea, the sadness, the broken promises, the let downs, these are a little easier to deal with when they live outside of your home. But when they're inside your home, you can't get away from this, you can't create space as easily.

💤 Your home is supposed to be the place where you can allow yourself to be at your most vulnerable and feel safe doing it. When you sleep, you're at your most vulnerable.

Are you sleeping next to your predator?
Is your predator in the next room?

This is not safe, it is unsafe - it does not have to be physical to be unsafe.

🔬 Here’s the neurobiology:

Nervous systems are not designed to run high for prolonged periods of time.
After about 6-12 hours in a perceived threatening environment, the nervous system is already learning how to adapt to the environment to "cope", no matter how subtle or extreme the threat, an adaptation must occur.

Nervous systems are built for activation → resolution → recovery.

When activation becomes constant, there is a biological consequence.
Living and sleeping under a roof where most of the time you feel:
• uneasy
• worried
• scared
• uncertain
• hyper-alert
• emotionally on edge
is neurobiologically no different to sleeping under the stars while predators circle in your periphery.

Your nervous system does NOT discriminate “emotional threat” as lesser than physical threat.
It responds in the exact same way.

If you feel chronically on guard in your own home, your brain shifts into hunted mode.

● The amygdala (threat detector area) stays vigilant.
● Stress hormones remain elevated.
● Sleep becomes lighter.
● Recovery becomes incomplete.
● The PFC (decision making, reasoning and emotional regulation area) becomes stunted and over time reduces in size.
● Memory becomes impaired

⚠️ Long term, the brain structurally changes to accommodate for chronic elevated stress hormones. These changes make it physically harder to change behavioural patterns.

Your nervous system begins to believe:
“I am not safe AND I'm struggling to trust myself".
When the place meant for restoration feels unsafe, nervous system decompression cannot occur!

Our nervous systems are not designed to survive indefinitely in prey mode.

If you feel exhausted and can’t explain why, start with looking at the roof you sleep under.
Your nervous system might already know.

Happy brain training 🧠💪
