Re-Groove Your Neural Pathways

Dr. Jessie • February 28, 2022

One of my favorite quotes of all time is from the Zen Poet, Paul Reps:

"Where attention goes Energy flows"

REWIRE YOUR BRAIN

It is entirely possible for you to move from sympathetic dominance to living your life from a sense of balance and harmony, no matter what your external circumstances are. You can establish a new baseline, a new set point. You can re-groove your neurological architecture. You can achieve what the meditators and mystics have spoken of for thousands and thousands of years, and we can map it as you go!

ADDICTED TO THE HORMONES OF STRESS

As humans, we can actually become addicted or entrained to what we sometimes consider "negative" emotions or the emotions of stress. In order to shift this, we have to practice feeling into the types of emotions we would like to experience more of in order to create a new set-point or baseline of our emotional status. The research states that this is entirely possible, and the best way we know how to help you is with yoga, meditative practices, and HeartMath.

IT TAKES SHOWING UP

The process of establishing these new neural pathways takes practice and patience. But the good news is, if you do the work, it works !

If you have been sympathetically-dominant your entire life (stressed, sympathetically-aroused, chronically busy, always multi-tasking, etc), it may actually feel uncomfortable for your nervous system to become relaxed, quiet, and balanced, because this neural information is so foreign . This is why it is important and helpful to work with a practitioner and perhaps even join a practice group to be fully supported, motivated, and follow through during this process of re-establishing your new baseline.

According a study of high school students after 16 weeks of HeartMath practices just a few sessions per week, there is a measurable shift in your baseline HRV pattern if you stick to it! In the clinic, we can measure pre-, during, and post- Heart Rate Variability data so that you can not only feel your progress but see the objective data.


If you're ready to transform and rewire your nervous system to a new normal, schedule a free 15 minute consult with our Certified HeartMath Practitioner to get started.

If you’ve ever taken a handful of vitamins and wondered how much your body is actually absorbing — you’re not alone. Nutrients taken orally can lose a significant percentage of their potency as they move through the digestive system. IV nutrient therapy changes that equation entirely. By delivering vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants directly into your bloodstream, IV therapy allows for near-100% absorption and rapid cellular delivery — something no capsule or powder can match. The result? Faster energy restoration, deeper detoxification, and noticeable vitality that most people feel within hours to a day. At The Healing Collective Functional & Integrative Medicine in Niwot, CO , we use IV therapy not just for hydration or recovery, but as a powerful tool for whole-body healing — especially when combined with good nutrition and targeted supplementation. Because while IV therapy provides an incredible boost, food and supplements remain the foundation of sustained wellness. Without them, many people would experience even greater nutrient deficiencies, fatigue, and barriers to healing. Together, a nutrient-rich diet, quality supplementation, and IV therapy create a synergistic path to true cellular vitality.
