S7 E1: Fostering Self-Regulation

Many aspects in life can feel intense or overwhelming. In a world where so much can seem unpredictable and uncontrollable, we can anticipate that feeling distressed is inevitable. As we kick off season 7, episode 1 starts off with a discussion about one aspect of life we can learn to improve and strengthen - self-regulation. The conversation starts by reflecting upon themes and common challenges that lead to feeling dysregulated. In their practices, Alexis & Jerry help those they work with harness and combat challenges to regain a sense of grounding, clarity, and intention in responding to emotionally triggering situations. Concepts discussed range from therapeutic approaches from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and executive function strategies. Nuanced discussions inspire hope for what is possible and how we can best support ourselves and others when dysregulated moments arise. Tune in to learn more. Be Curious. Be Open. Be Well.
