AUTOIMMUNITY & THE NERVOUS SYSTEM
When your body never feels safe, your immune system never rests.
Autoimmunity doesn’t start in your joints, thyroid, or skin,
it starts in your nervous system’s perception of threat.
When you live in a chronic state of fight, flight, or freeze, your body’s chemistry changes:
• Cortisol and adrenaline stay elevated.
• Digestion slows down.
• Gut permeability increases.
• The immune system becomes overactivated.
Your body begins to misinterpret you as the danger.
✨ Regulation, not restriction, is what brings your system back to balance.
Here’s how we start rewiring safety in the body:
1 Breathe deeply before meals → signals “rest and digest.”
2 Ground daily (barefoot, sunlight, nature) → lowers inflammation.
3 Create a rhythm → predictable routines calm the vagus nerve.
4 Practice co-regulation → connection and laughter heal the immune system faster than isolation.
Your nervous system sets the tone for your immune system.
When you create safety, your body can finally stop fighting and start healing.
