How Do You Want to Feel in 2026? 
Your nervous system matters as much as your ambitions and requires nurturing. Your nervous system is your body’s command center. It controls everything from breathing and heartbeat to movement, thought, and emotion. When it’s not well-supported, you might experience issues like chronic stress, poor sleep, difficulty concentrating, mood swings, digestive problems, or a weakened immune response. A dysregulated nervous system can leave you stuck in “fight or flight” mode, making it hard to relax and recover. Here are a few ways to prioritize supporting your nervous system. 1. Manage stress through regular relaxation practices. Your nervous system needs downtime to shift from sympathetic (stress) mode to parasympathetic (rest and digest) mode. Practices like deep breathing, meditation, yoga, or even just taking regular breaks throughout the day help activate the calming branch of your nervous system. The vagus nerve, which is central to this relaxation response, responds well to slow, diaphragmatic breathing. 2. Prioritize quality sleep and nutrition. Your nervous system repairs and regenerates during sleep, and chronic sleep deprivation can impair cognitive function and emotional regulation. Nutritionally, B vitamins (especially B12), magnesium, omega-3 fatty acids, and adequate hydration are crucial for nerve function and neurotransmitter production. Regular movement, maintaining social connections, and limiting exposure to chronic stressors also play important roles in keeping your nervous system balanced and resilient.

@ThrillaRilla369 40

So apparently the average length of marriage is 20 years... Where are you at?

@ronsterd89 It’s stunning.

I made this how does it look?

@MandyLSimard Birds singing.

What’s one sound in nature that instantly brings you peace? 🌿

Simple Bee Watering Station Idea 🐝👍 PS: I inadvertently deleted my previous message on this same topic. However, unlike the deleted video, this one uses wood, a natural material. You can also use natural stones, but not glass or synthetic stones. Thank you all for your valuable advice, some of which is here: x.com/DrTOMontgomery…

@SethLaceyCRE I live in Montana and do the same thing. It’s super expensive.

I spend way too much time at night looking at Montana & Wyoming fishing/hunting ranches I can’t afford.

@CaleCrypto @JessicaDoyle So true, but it is nice not to have to cook once in awhile .

Once you get good at cooking, eating out just feels like an expensive downgrade

In the 1990s, Canadian ecologist Suzanne Simard made a groundbreaking discovery that challenged everything we thought we knew about how forests work. While studying managed forests in British Columbia, she noticed something puzzling: when birch trees were removed to promote the growth of valuable Douglas firs, the firs did not flourish as expected — they actually struggled and grew more slowly. Determined to understand why, Simard traced the movement of nutrients using radioactive carbon isotopes. What she found was astonishing. Trees were actively sharing resources through vast underground fungal networks known as mycorrhizae. These delicate, thread-like fungi connect the roots of different trees across the forest floor, forming a complex web that allows the exchange of carbon, water, nutrients, and even chemical signals — sometimes between entirely different species. She discovered that older, larger trees often serve as central "hubs" or "mother trees," supporting younger saplings by redistributing vital resources and helping the entire ecosystem remain resilient. When these key trees are removed, the underground network weakens, and the health of the remaining forest declines. Simard’s research overturned the traditional Darwinian view of forests as battlegrounds of ruthless competition. Instead, she revealed a far more sophisticated reality: forests operate as highly cooperative systems where trees communicate, support one another, and even warn neighboring trees about threats like drought, disease, or insect attacks. What appears to the human eye as a silent, still forest is, in truth, a vibrant, interconnected living network — built not on isolation and rivalry, but on deep connection and mutual aid.

I always love getting feedback on how helpful my companion planting guides are. #gardening #homesteading #companionplanting soultosoulwithcarol.etsy.com/listing/119178…

Would you allow your child to miss school for a day just to rest because they are mentally or emotionally tired?
