Why Your Nervous System Holds the Key to Mental Health: Dr. Sarah Boss
What if the secret to healing your mind lies not in more thinking, but in your body itself?
In this episode of The HumanWare Project, psychiatrist and clinical director Dr. Sarah Boss reveals how the nervous system shapes trauma, resilience, and recovery in ways traditional talk therapy and medication often overlook.
From cutting-edge neuromodulation techniques to bottom-up approaches like somatic experiencing, vagus nerve stimulation, and mindfulness, Dr. Boss explains why true transformation requires working with both brain and body.
You’ll learn why the mind constantly clings to old patterns, how trauma becomes “stuck” in the nervous system, and why reconnecting with your sensations, breath, and environment is essential for long-term mental health.
At its heart, this conversation challenges the myth that healing is only cognitive - and shows how resilience, presence, and peace can be cultivated from the inside out.
Prepare to see stress, trauma, and mental health through a completely new lens, one that could change how you relate to your body and your mind.
