Thanksgiving, Therapy, and Thankfulness with Lisa Gormley

Welcome to another episode with the talented “Catholic Therapist,” Lisa Gormley. After many conversations with friends and listeners about the anxiety that the holiday season can bring, we knew we needed a professional. On today’s episode we discussed not only “getting through” the holidays, but finding ways to thrive. By using both spiritual and practical ways to maintain regulation in our mind and spirit, Lisa shares how we can better maintain a parasympathetic nervous response, or the “rest and digest” state when we know we are safe, rather than finding ourselves in a constant state of “fight or flights or the “sympathetic nervous response.”
