Why Somatics Actually Works (The Prefrontal Cortex, Safety & the Nervous System)

Описание: Most behavior issues in dogs and humans aren’t training problems.
They’re nervous system problems. In this video, I break down the prefrontal cortex in a way that finally makes sense:

• why thinking stops under stress
• why learning doesn’t stick when safety is missing
• why behavior escalates even when “they know better”
• and why somatic work succeeds where correction and repetition fail

This isn’t about obedience. It’s not about compliance. And it’s definitely not about willpower. It’s about access. When the nervous system doesn’t feel safe, the prefrontal cortex goes offline. And without that part of the brain online, regulation, learning, and connection simply aren’t available. That’s why somatics works — not because it’s trendy or fluffy, but because it works with biology instead of against it. In this video, we talk about:

• what actually happens in the brain under stress
• why you can’t “think” your way out of dysregulation
• how the body restores access to higher brain function
• why presence matters more than technique
• and what “felt safety” really means

If this made something click for you — about your dog, your child, or even yourself — you’re not alone. This work changes how you see behavior forever.
