Autonomic nervous system
3 videos across 2 channels
The autonomic nervous system threads through our most intimate and everyday experiences—from the hormones of love, attachment, and social bonding to the bodily rhythms that govern bladder function, arousal, and circadian health. These videos connect how autonomic arousal, balance between sympathetic and parasympathetic states, and neurochemical signals shape attachment patterns, empathy, desire, and social behavior, while also showing how lifestyle factors—light, sleep, stress, and diet—modulate these processes.
