Nervousness

How Does This Happen?

Nervousness is not just an emotional condition.  It also represents a generalized irritated state of the nervous system due to stimulants like caffeine, medications, or structural misalignments i.e., subluxations.

What Can I do To Help Myself?

There are lots of things you can do while your body adapts to change.  You can laugh, scream, cry, shout, see a funny movie, or exercise.  You can call a good friend or seek counsel from a spiritual advisor.  You can go for a long drive, meditate, or pray.  You may find journaling and hobbies work to relieve your nervousness.

It’s Still Bothering Me, Now What?

The best way to relieve stress is to take pressure off the nervous system.  One of the most common and least recognized causes of nervousness is when your bones lose their proper relationships to one another, creating pressure on the various nerves.  This occurs frequently in the spine.  Scientists and doctors call this phenomenon “subluxation.”  We relieve pressure on the nervous system with gentle “adjustments” to the spine.  Often times after an adjustment, people feel more at ease.  They describe feeling relaxed, and they notice they sleep better, and everything in their bodies starts to work normally again.
