Right Up My Podcast
Right Up My Podcast is the podcast for those looking to explore different methods of self-care, self-love and ways to make you feel good.
Hosted by voice artist and presenter Gwen Watson and journalist and producer Kate White, Right Up My Podcast came from a mutual drive to find new ways to improve our own mental health.
Each episode we chat to a different expert about their feel-good forte, and then try it out for ourselves to see if it works... or if it doesn't.
It's frank, funny and honest, with the odd bit of over-sharing. So join us on Right Up My Podcast, because you deserve to feel good too!
Released fortnightly. Contains bad language and inappropriate laughter.

Right Up My Podcast
Ep.51 - The Vagus Nerve: Changing how we process stress | Melissa Romano
We take a deep dive into our nervous system, with Melissa Romano, who educates us about the vagus nerve. She talks us through how to change the way we process stress and tone our nervous system, so that we can stay better connected, responding appropriately rather than reacting in those moments of stress.
Melissa is a holistic therapist who specialises in applied polyvagal theory and integrative somatic therapy. You can find out more about Melissa and her work at reclaiminghealthy.com
Melissa sets Gwen and Kate an exercise to help them check-in and stay connected to their nervous systems on a regular basis, plus aid digestion!
We also reference our breathwork episodes, which you can listen to here:
Breathwork Part 1
