Ever hear a door close and feel a sudden feeling of dread? Or buy a new car and realize seemingly for the first time just how much stress that old transmission was causing? Don’t worry, you don’t have ESP, psychic premonitions or copy-righted spider based super powers– instead you’re experiencing one of the most primitive and powerful pieces of human evolution! Stephen Porge’s pioneering work on the polyvagal theory lead to the discovery of another (increasingly inaccurately named) 6th sense- neuroception. Join Vi and I as we interview polyvagal podcaster Justin Sunseri, host of Stuck Not Broken. Catch the episode live 1/14 at 7p CT and be sure to check back after the episode for some footNOTES!
