Regulating the Nervous System
Combining a protocol from Chad Fisher of All things Frequency and information from Petra of Freedom with Frequency, Quantum CommUNITY
The Nervous system is the body’s electrical system & primary command center transmitting signals between the brain and the rest of the body. This highly complex organ system consists of specialised cells called neurons and a network of nerves which carry information throughout the body. The nervous system’s activity controls the ability to move, breathe, see, think, feel, digest, remember, respond and more. Therefore it is extremely important to overall health.
Central Nervous System (CNS)
This includes the brain and spinal cord. The brain processes information and coordinates responses, while the spinal cord transmits signals between the brain and the rest of the body.
Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)
This consists of all the nerves outside the CNS. It connects the CNS to limbs and organs and is further divided into
- Somatic Nervous System – Controls voluntary movements and transmits sensory information – Fascia
- Autonomic Nervous System – Regulates involuntary functions such as heartbeat and digestion, and is subdivided into
– Sympathetic Nervous System which Prepares the body for stressful situations (fight or flight response).
– Parasympathetic Nervous System Promotes a state of rest and relaxation – Vagus nerve
Signs of dysregulation could be:
Emotional Symptoms
- Anxiety and panic attacks, or hyperactivity/hyper-vigilance
- Feelings of overwhelm, chronically stressed & on-edge
- Depression and mood swings
- Irritability and emotional instability – Reactive/over-reaction in situations, irritability, frustration
Cognitive Symptoms
- Difficulty concentrating or focusing, brain fog
- Memory loss or impaired mental clarity
- Confusion or disorientation
Physical Symptoms
- Fatigue or lethargy
- Sleep disturbances, including insomnia or excessive sleeping Headaches or migraines
- Dizziness or lightheadedness
- Numbness or tingling sensations in limbs
Motor Symptoms
- Loss of coordination or balance
- Weakness or loss of muscle strength
- Chronic pain & illness
- Tremors or involuntary movements
- Slurred speech or difficulty with verbal communication
Autonomic Symptoms
- Changes in heart rate or blood pressure
- Digestive issues, such as nausea or changes in appetite
- Sensitivity to light or sound or other people’s energy
If these feel familiar, it is recommended to use NERVE HARMONY (BH1) regularly (2-3x/week) and as needed (in acute situations) to help rebalance the body and bioenergetic field. This helps move the nervous system more into a parasympathetic state. It also might be worth seeing a chiropractor to make sure there are no subluxations and the nervous system has flow and connection.
Creating an Adaptable Nervous System
Embodiment Practices – Focus on somatic mindfulness to become aware of bodily sensations. This helps in recognising how your nervous system responds to various stimuli. Techniques such as body scans or mindful movement can enhance this awareness.
Breathwork – Implement deep breathing exercises to activate the parasympathetic nervous system. The physiological sigh (two short inhales followed by a long exhale) is particularly effective in promoting relaxation and reducing stress.
Physical Activity – Engage in regular exercise, which releases endorphins and improves mood. Activities like yoga, walking, or dancing can help regulate the nervous system and enhance overall well-being.
Mindfulness and Meditation – Dedicate time each day to mindfulness practices. This can include meditation, focusing on breath, or observing thoughts without judgment, which helps cultivate a sense of calm and presence.
Weighted Blankets & 20s Hugs – Using a weighted blanket can provide deep-pressure stimulation, which may help soothe anxiety and activate the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting a sense of safety and relaxation. The same thing happens with a 20 second hug which stimulates oxytocin and endorphins and immediately puts your body into “rest & digest” state.
Self-Reflection and Journaling – Practice self-directed neuroplasticity by reflecting on your habits and how they affect your feelings. Journaling about positive experiences and changes can reinforce new, healthier patterns in your nervous system. Don’t focus only on the things that need changing. Make space and time for dreaming and feeling the full expression of yourself.
Community and Support – Engage with supportive communities or seek professional guidance. Programs focused on nervous system regulation can provide structured support and resources for healing and resilience. Community give us a sense of belonging which in tern calms us down.
Experimentation & Exploration
Stay curious and try various techniques to find what resonates with your unique nervous system. Not every strategy will work for everyone, so it’s important to explore and adapt practices that suit your needs.
Protocol
Weeks 1 and 2
The first two weeks of the protocol focused on calming the nervous system, addressing any acute situations of imbalance and supporting the biological cycles (circadian rhythm) that allow the nervous system to function optimally.
Week 3
Week 3 is oriented towards restoring balance through managing and mitigating stress. We explore the interaction between the nervous system and our hormonal system – with a particular focus on the adrenals, cortisol and stress support. The aim is to rebalance any nervous system dysfunction, address adrenal or hormonal imbalances and moving the nervous system into a deeper state of calm, relaxation and parasympathetic dominance (i.e out of fight, flight, freeze and adrenal burnout).
Week 4
This final week is about activation – that is central nervous system stimulation, more mental clarity/energy and accessing higher states of performance and consciousness.

Tips
- * For extra support Alaskan Gem Elixirs or Australian Bush Flowers for 5min59 or even 12min49 after the EXHAUSTION program(s) to harmonise the physical and non-physical states.
- * * use min 5 hours before sleep as it can be energising for some – supports the vagus nerve which plays a big role in the circadian rhythm and sleep quality. This can be used with the sticky pad electrodes placed on the mastoid bone (behind the ear).
- ***Try pair programs from Bioenergetic Harmony (BH) & Meridians. Whereas the frequencies in BH address acute situations to restore balance, the meridians optimise and harmonise the flow of chi along the energetic highways.NERVE HARMONY in the Bioenergetic Harmony programs bioenergetically regulates the nervous system while the NERVE MERIDIAN will harmonise nerve function.
- **** CONCENTRATION ACUTE supports concentration via cranial stimulation and focuses on frequencies for acute states of concentration. This is specific harmonisation of the bioenergetic field to enhance focusing. A quick 20 minute program at 15kHz (15000Hz!), this helps with high Beta which is associated with high mental activity and a high degree of alertness. Great for tasks requiring a high degree of focus for a shorter period of time.
CONCENTRATION SYSTEMIC assists with higher states of concentration. This program facilitates bioenergetic optimization of the oxygen supply to the brain and central nervous system. Therefore these frequencies that work at the systemic level to harmonise the bioenergetic field for focus and enhance the ability to ignore distraction.
- REST in Digital Nutrition contains: Tryptophan, Serotonin, Melatonin, Glycine, Ornithine, Arginine, Vitamin D, Vitamin B3, Vitamin B5, Vitamin B6, Vitamin B9, Vitamin B10, Vitamin B12, Iron, Zinc, Copper, Selenium, Magnesium, Methionine, Phenylalanine
- If your sleep has not been stellar, running a SLEEP program each night can quickly improve your experience. And if you rise not feeling well rested, FATIGUE is incredibly effective at clearing the fog so to speak and putting a little more pep in your step for that afternoon slump or late day energy lull so common with adrenal fatigue, hormonal and/or circadian rhythm imbalances and nervous system dysregulation.
- The FINE FLOW frequencies harmonise the energetic movements of charged particles through the body which in turn helps to regulate neuronal communication, neurotransmitter and hormone release that also support healthy sleep states. Ionic charges in the extracellular fluid are strong controllers of the body’s ability to move into sleep. Which is why we find this incredibly powerful frequency program in the SLEEP section.
