Yes, there are definitely other things we can do to "trick" our nervous system. For example, when we have a headache, we might take pain medication or apply a cold compress to help alleviate the pain. These actions can help distract our nervous system and reduce the perception of pain. Additionally, practices like meditation, deep breathing, or acupuncture can also help regulate our nervous system and provide relief from various symptoms or conditions. In a way, these techniques can be seen as "tricking" our nervous system into feeling better.
