#59 - Your Gut Has a Nervous System - Here’s Why It Matters

Stress doesn’t just live in the mind.


It shows up in the body - and especially in the gut.


In this episode of Alignment by Tuva, we explore the gut nervous system, also known as the enteric nervous system, and why your stomach often reacts so strongly to stress, anxiety, overwhelm, and emotional pressure.


You’ll learn why the gut is sometimes called the “second brain,” how the gut and brain communicate through the gut-brain axis, and why sensations like nausea, appetite changes, stomach tension, and “gut feelings” are not random - they’re nervous system communication.


In this episode, we explore:


  • what the gut nervous system actually is
  • why your gut has millions of neurons
  • how stress changes digestion
  • why anxiety often shows up in the stomach
  • how the gut and brain communicate through the vagus nerve
  • why emotions feel physical
  • the science behind gut feelings and pattern recognition


If you’ve ever wondered why stress affects your digestion, why emotions hit your stomach first, or why your body reacts before your mind catches up, this episode will help you understand what’s actually happening.


And in the next episode, we’ll go further - into how to support and regulate the gut nervous system in everyday life.
