Nervous system dysregulation refers to a condition in which the nervous system becomes overly sensitive and reactive. It primarily affects the autonomic nervous system, which governs involuntary bodily functions such as heart rate, breathing, temperature regulation, and digestion.
When the nervous system is dysregulated, it becomes imbalanced easily and remains in that imbalanced state for too long.
Aspects of autonomic nervous system function, such as digestion, blood pressure, heart rate, and sweating, change in response to stress.
An ongoing imbalance can have negative effects on both physical and mental health, influencing how we feel, think, and respond to the world around us.
