Summary

Hey, Heal Squad! We're back with another special episode recorded LIVE from the Heal Squad Day of Reset, and today we're sharing one of the most powerful conversations of the entire event: our Mind-Body Reset Panel. Maria brought together three of her favorite healers and trusted Heal Squad experts to explore what healing really means—and what we can do right now to help reset an overwhelmed nervous system. Psychotherapist and trauma expert Tammy Valicenti explains why healing starts by understanding the stories, patterns, and protective behaviors driving our stress and anxiety. Holistic health practitioner and Regenerative Pathway Therapy creator Gabby Piccirilli shares simple techniques to help regulate the nervous system in real time and reconnect with the body's natural healing abilities. And traditional Chinese medicine physician Anthony DiSalvo reveals the acupressure practices he uses to help people manage anxiety, tension, pain, and overwhelm.Together, they explore how to recognize when you're stuck in survival mode, why your symptoms may be trying to tell you something, and the small daily practices that can help you feel calmer, safer, and more connected to your body.The best part? Many of these tools are simple, free, and available to you anytime you need them.We hope you enjoy this special LIVE conversation from the Heal Squad Day of Reset! HEALERS & HEAL LINERS Your nervous system may be running the show more than you realize. Anxiety, brain fog, jaw clenching, digestive issues, fatigue, and feeling constantly overwhelmed aren't random,...they can all be signs that your body is stuck in survival mode. Healing starts with awareness, not perfection. Whether it's recognizing the thoughts driving your stress, understanding the emotions stored in your body, or learning to listen to your symptoms differently, every healer on this panel agreed that lasting healing begins by paying attention to what your body is trying to tell you. The most powerful healing tools are often the simplest. From EMDR and nervous system regulation techniques to acupressure points and breathwork, this conversation proves that helping your body feel safe doesn't always require expensive treatments—sometimes small daily practices can create the biggest shifts.
