Dr. Stephen Porges' Polyvagal Theory has revolutionized the way we view the body’s response to stress, considering the autonomic nervous system (ANS) the foundation of our lived experience.

Ventral Vagal
In this state, our social engagement system is active in the ventral vagal pathway of the parasympathetic branch. Our nervous system is regulated, and we're ready to connect and engage with others and what we're experiencing in the now, while tuning out irrelevant stimuli. We feel safe and secure in the world.

Sympathetic
This state of the ANS activates when we feel a stirring of unease — when neuroception triggers a sense of danger. We feel the need to take action to avoid or resolve the perceived threat, best known as fight-or-flight response. The world feels
dangerous or overstimulating.

Dorsal Vagal
A primal part of the human experience, the dorsal vagal pathway is the path of last resort — a place of immobilization when sympathetic response is insufficient at protecting us or eliminating the perceived threat. In this state, sense of hopelessness may take over, and our mind and body move into conservation mode. We feel
disconnected from ourselves and from the world.

It is also possible to rapidly shift between or experience a blend of three states as you go about your day.

The body has different physiological responses that help us to identify what nervous system state we are in:

Freeze: decrease in blood pressure, heart rate, muscle tone, sexual response, immune response, facial expressions, eye contact and increase in pain threshold and insulin production

Fight/Flight: increase in blood pressure, heart rate, adrenaline, pupil size, blood clotting and decrease in parasympathetic activity of digestion, salivation, and immune response.

Ventral Vagal (Grounded): increase in digestion, immune regulation, circulation to skin and extremities, produces oxytocin, defensiveness is decreased and social engagement increases.

Being stuck in Fight/Flight or Freeze/Fawn for long periods of time can be a contributing factor to many chronic health conditions i.e: digestive health disorders (IBS, ulcerative colitis, crohn's disease) and autoimmune disorders due to the impact that the stress responses have on immune regulation and function.
