Know Your Body 101

This month, we're talking about the central nervous system. Have you ever wondered what's actually happening inside you when you feel nervous, excited, or calm? Join us for: • A guided tour of the central & peripheral nervous systems, including cranial and spinal nerves • How your nervous system controls movement, sensation, and your inner world • The somatic & autonomic systems — how your body runs on autopilot • The sympathetic & parasympathetic systems — your gas pedal and your brakes • Heart Rate Variability — a simple, science-backed trick to help your body relax • Our TEN (not five) senses! - time permitting As always, expect some surprising fun facts, practical health hacks, and a chance to ask your burning questions. Note taking is optional — come as you are and soak it in. No science background needed. No homework, no quizzes, no tests. Just curiosity! WARNING: side effects may include increased curiosity and an urge to chat about physiology at dinner parties. This course is taught by EMILY KLIK, LMT, CST. Emily's anatomical learning path started before she could walk. Her father was a high school science teacher, and science class was always in session, even at home. His early instruction inspired a lifetime of curiosity about how we work, inside out. Over the past 23 years, Emily has applied this knowledge as a bodyworker, specializing in releasing migraines and TMJ issues, and working on many other conditions and sources of pain in our human bodies.
