Did You Know There Are Skills You Can Use To Naturally Ask Your Body to Calm & Regulate?

Triggers are anything that create a cascade of physiological responses inside of you that guide your thoughts, feelings, & choices to move in directions that don’t feel good or supportive to you long term. Training with usic & skills can help you turn the volume down on triggers so they stop popping up & taking you off course in life.

Triggers can be known & unknown, conscious & unconscious.  Often we might think we are triggered or upset about one thing when the reality is that  “one thing”  reminds your body unconsciously of something about your past.  That unconscious body memory, sets off the corresponding cascade of responses in the form of chemicals, feelings, emotions, thoughts, nervous system patterns & states, etc.   This cascade of involuntary automatic responses is what your inner systems came up with way back in a childhood moment to make you more comfortable or protect you, but now it might just be getting in the way of your life & how you want to feel & act.

The good news is that daily practice with regulating skills can shift the automatic habits of your mind & body which makes it easier to pivot when old survival responses come up. Old dysregulated patterns are just coping mechanisms that your body & mind learned to unconsciously set off in response to something familiar. But, as the adult you are today, you can retrain your body & mind to automatically respond differently & live a calmer, more peaceful & fulfilling life in deep connection with those you love. Below, you will learn some of the skills that I teach people to use when they want to shift the way they feel.

Part of learning to have the kind of self-control that makes your life easier & to feel better consistently in your mind & body is deepening your listening of your inner systems so these triggers & responses become conscious.  Then you can retrain them to support you in the present moment & to stop that cascade of physiological responses that make your life difficult.
