#161: Self-Regulation and Healing Relational Anxiety with Dr. Nima Rahmany

How does anxiety impact our lives? 

Dr. Nima Rahmany’s work focuses on relational anxiety, which not only influences how we connect with others, but also has a huge effect on our health and happiness. 

Listen to hear Dr. Nima’s simple but valuable tools for self-regulating emotions, and an easy “hack” for activating the parasympathetic nervous system. 

Key takeaways:

• Dr. Nima Rahmany’s chiropractic patient work and his personal experience with anxiety inspired him to become a teacher
• Trauma is stored in the body, and it’s necessary to deal with anxiety cognitively as well as physiologically
• Step one is regaining balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems
• Learning self-regulation is essential to restoring intimacy and healing relational anxiety
