- Flexibility: from micro to macro level
- Human senses, receptors, labeled lines
- Understanding what different receptors are telling us in relation to injury prevention
- Body awareness: proprioceptive, interoceptive, spatial
- Stress, Hormesis, Allostatic load, HPA axis
- Predictive regulation
- ANS control hierarchy
- The problem with the common interpretation of the Sympathetic and Parasympathetic branches of the ANS
- an extended framework to look at ‘stress’ and ‘somatic interventions’
