Science
A 2025 meta analysis of 17 trials found that mind body exercise produced a substantial reduction in anxiety symptoms among women.
Programmes that combined movement, breath and mindful focus were most effective for easing anxiety, with benefits seen across different ages and life stages.
Rise Rooted cares because this confirms that nervous system led movement is not a luxury. It is a precise intervention for reducing anxiety, restoring clarity and rebuilding sustainable energy.

Soul
2025 research reframes women’s intuition as attunement – a biologically grounded capacity to sense and integrate inner and relational signals.
The paper shows how trauma and chronic stress can dull this attunement, and how restoring regulation and connection can re awaken intuitive knowing, empathy and relational presence.
Rise Rooted cares because what we call soul work is also nervous system work. When the body is regulated, intuition is no longer a whisper under static. It becomes a clear inner signal women can trust in leadership and in life.

Somatics
A 2025 physiology study found that drinking cold water rapidly shifted autonomic balance in young women, co activating both sympathetic and parasympathetic branches.
Heart rate variability markers changed within minutes, showing how a simple body based stimulus can modulate the nervous system in real time and support re entry into calm.
Rise Rooted cares because it demonstrates that somatic tools are highly trainable levers. Small, repeatable body based practices can reshape how the nervous system meets stress and returns to steadiness.
