So it came from all of my experience, and I am not a therapist, so it is not therapy. And if I feel like that is something that you need, I would just advise you to it instead of me. But I have learned a lot about the nervous system along the way because all of that anxiety, all that panic stems back to the nervous system. That's right. And yeah, there's experiences and strongholds and all that kind of stuff that you can work out in therapy, but there are ways to calm your nervous system. There are ways to recognize that your nervous system is out of whack. And when it's dysregulated, that's often what people refer to as fight or flight mode, which we recognize what that is. We recognize that's when we're in danger. So if we saw a bear, we would instantly go into fight or flight mode because we would need to survive. Right.
