Are you living life or living in a constant state of survival without realizing it?HRV expert and nervous system educator Salim Najjar helps unravel what’s happening beneath the surface. He opens up about how early childhood loss, Lebanese cultural conditioning, and years of nonstop striving wired him to live in a constant state of alertness. Through his story, he explains how the body holds onto unprocessed emotions, how ancestral trauma can shape our sense of safety, and why heart rate variability (HRV) is one of the most revealing signals of our internal world.Salim also breaks down the science behind chronic stress and why it quietly fuels inflammation, burnout, and emotional reactivity. More importantly, he shares practical tools, from somatic awareness practices to reframing and intentionality, that helped him rebuild his own nervous system and step into what he calls “nervous system sovereignty.”If you want to join the free Beyond Tomorrow Community, check the link: skool.com/beyond-tomorrow for more!  What You’ll LearnHow the nervous system shifts between sympathetic and parasympathetic statesWhy HRV is the most honest indicator of stress and internal healthHow childhood and ancestral trauma imprint on the bodyHow somatic awareness helps release stored emotional patternsThe five pathways for HRV growth: sleep, hormetic stress, reframing, intentionality, communityHow reframing experiences can instantly shift physiological stressWhy community and co-regulation are essential for nervous system resilience⏱ Timestamps00:00 Intro01:04 What Your Body Is Really Asking For01:44 Growing Up as First-Generation Lebanese03:42 Inside Lebanese Family Culture06:20 How Healing Yourself Impacts Future Generations10:45 Why We React the Way We Do15:15 A Guided Somatic Awareness Practice17:33 Understanding Heart Rate Variability (HRV)19:13 Making Sense of Your HRV Score23:26 Chronic Stress: The Hidden Source of Inflammation29:00 What True Healing Can Look Like35:56 Two Powerful Ways to Reduce Stress40:29 How to Shift Into a Parasympathetic State42:58 The Transformative Power of Reframing45:54 The Intentionality Behind Your Actions49:06 Why Community Is Essential for Well-Being50:09 The Nervous System’s Deep Need for Safety55:01 How HRV Helped Sarah Reclaim Her Health01:12:01 A Gentle Reminder: Be Kinder to Yourself🎙 Hosted by Julian Issa 📸 Instagram: @thebeyondtomorrowpodcast 🌐 Website: www.beyondtomorrowpodcast.com 📩 Email: [email protected] 🎧 Subscribe on Spotify, Apple, and YouTube for more stories from the edge of what is possible.Episode Resources:Salim NajjarWebsite: https://thathrvguy.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thathrvguy/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/salimm.najjar/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thathrvguy LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/salimnajjar
