S4, Ep 3: Why regulation isn't always regulating!

In this weeks episode, Michelle, explores the complexity of regulation and why some practices that promote regulation aren't always regulating!Michelle talks about:Somatics and what this word  really means Why the wellness world's focus on down-regulation isn't always what the nervous system needsWhy looking calm and relaxed isn't always the inner experienceRegulation is not about stopping something from happening but is about allowing a full expression of what makes us deeply humanSometimes regulation is moving towards the thing that we would think we need to stopDysregulation holds a lot of wisdom and without it we can't become regulatedWhen we befriend our nervous system we become our own master, guru, and the outside noise becomes quieter as we become more connected, whole and able to discern what's good for us and what's not good for usSupport the showThanks for listening!Follow me on Facebook or Instagram.If you'd like to explore how my Somatic Experiencing Trauma Therapy can support you, please get in touch to book a free consultation.Registration has now opened for our trauma-informed Certified Laughter Yoga Leader training in March.
