Podcasts about emotional regulation

What do you do when someone you love sees the world so differently from you that every conversation feels tense? When your values and beliefs clash so deeply that you start wondering if you can stay close at all? If you've ever found yourself in that tension, between wanting to stay connected and wanting to stay true to yourself, you are not alone. In this episode, I'm talking with Dr. Bill Doherty, a professor, therapist, and co-founder of Braver Angels, about how to navigate hard conversations when politics, cultural influences, or deeply held beliefs divide us. Dr. Doherty shares how the same tools that heal intimate relationships can also strengthen our political communication, especially with the people we care about most. We talk about emotional self-regulation, listening with genuine curiosity, and the courage it takes to connect before you correct. You'll hear how story and empathy can shift defensiveness into understanding, and how choosing calm over control can keep love alive across even the deepest divides.

Tammy brings the hard hitting truth: Chaos might feel like momentum, but it's really just motion without meaning. In this fast-paced episode, she dives into the high cost of allowing stress, drama, and avoidant behaviors to run your workplace. Through personal anecdotes (like the story of "Frank"), Tammy explains why unsustainability is the ultimate price of chaos—affecting everything from turnover rates and sick leave to team productivity. This is a crucial lesson on self-regulation, clarity, and building a workplace where order restores energy and trust. 4 Costs of Chaos Chaos is Expensive: Chaos lacks sustainability. Leaders who use fear or high-pressure tactics get short-term results, but overall productivity drops, leading to increased turnover, higher sick leave, and loss of revenue. Unregulated Leaders Create Unregulated Teams: You cannot lead people out of stress while you are drowning in it. An unregulated leader models expected chaotic behavior, causing the team to become dysregulated, driving them to spend time job-searching instead of working. Communication in Chaos Becomes Cannibalistic: Fear-fed communication eats results for breakfast. When defensiveness (a form of fear-filled communication) becomes the norm, team members focus on self-preservation, eating away at collaboration, trust, and transformation. Regulation is Not Rigidity: Order restores energy, focus, and trust in your team. Regulation is about your "count-on-ability"—what your team can rely on from your reactions and responses. It's the opposite of being stuck; it's the foundation for agility. Actionable Tools & Quotes The Problem with Volatility and Vacancy: Both yelling and retreating are equally damaging. Vacancy (silence/shutting down) tells people they can't trust you, while volatility pushes them away. Leaders must find the regulated middle ground. The Key to Performance: "Healthy, actionable steps driving performance is a winning plan every single day." Your Self-Check: Ask your team: "What is your count-on-ability factor?" Look at your sick leave and turnover rates—these are chaos-driven numbers. Final Quote: "Fear-fed communication eats results for breakfast." Call to Action: Don't drive Q4 momentum with chaos. Drive it with curiosity and clarity. I unapologetically ask bold questions and challenge assumptions to help leaders rethink what they thought was true! DM me the word CHAOS on Instagram @TheTammyBond to get a resource that will help you ask the right questions to solve for the chaos and finish the year strong.

Your doctor just became your worst enemy. When the medical establishment brands chronic dizziness conditions like PPPD, MDDS, and vestibular migraines as "incurable," they're not just wrong, they're actively destroying lives through calculated ignorance. Dr. Yonit Arthur, a board-certified audiologist with a doctorate from Purdue University, drops a bombshell: patients experiencing 24/7 sensory collapse, paralyzing terror, and complete disorientation aren't suffering from permanent damage. They're trapped in a fear loop that doctors reinforce with every "learn to manage it" prescription. After watching the medical system fail hundreds of desperate patients who've seen 20, 30, even 40 specialists, Dr. Arthur launched The Steady Coach a popular YouTube channel with free courses to expose an uncomfortable truth. These "chronic" conditions persist because patients have been programmed to believe they're broken.

This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna — the faith-based inner healing modality that helps you achieve emotional freedom. In this heartfelt episode, host Laura Milliken sits down with Shayla Huber to explore the powerful intersection of parenting, therapy, and healing from trauma. Together, they discuss the emotional journey of raising a child who struggles deeply with behavioral and emotional regulation, and how therapy brought transformation to their family. Shayla shares her vulnerable story about her son Leroy's healing process — from despair and frustration to breakthrough moments of connection, empathy, and joy. This episode highlights how faith, therapy, and understanding child development can bring new life to family dynamics, creating deeper connection, communication, and emotional growth. It's a story of hope for every parent who has ever felt defeated or unsure — reminding us that love and surrender can lead to transformation. ✨ Key Takeaways: Parenting can often be filled with guilt, shame, and exhaustion. Therapy provides tools, hope, and perspective when parenting feels overwhelming. Emotional struggles in children often have roots in trauma and disconnection. Connection and communication are key to lasting change. Faith and emotional regulation work hand in hand in the healing process. Art, writing, and creativity can be therapeutic outlets for children. Understanding trauma helps parents respond with compassion rather than control. True transformation begins when we learn to see our children the way God sees them. Healing impacts not just the child — but the entire family dynamic. “Jesus changed everything.”

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty is joined by internationally recognized coach and speaker Camilla Calberg, founder of the Authentic Leadership Movement. Together, they explore the power of emotional regulation, self-awareness, and nervous system calm as tools to move from victimhood to resilience. Camilla shares how to break free from self-limiting beliefs, reframe stress, and regulate emotions without suppressing them. From practical strategies like thought-dumping before bed to deeper insights on choosing how we show up, this conversation offers listeners a grounded path toward inner freedom, clarity, and authentic leadership. Whether you're navigating stress at work, emotional overwhelm, or cycles of self-doubt, this episode provides actionable tools and fresh perspectives to remind you: you are not your thoughts. About the Guest  : Camilla Calberg is a transformational coach, international speaker, and founder of the Authentic Leadership Movement. She has led multi-million-dollar transformation programs for Fortune 500 companies and guided hundreds of women into soul-aligned careers and leadership roles. Drawing from her personal journey of overcoming psychological abuse and rebuilding her life, Camilla empowers others to turn pain into power using her 3I Framework—Influence, Innovate, Inspire. Key Takeaways  : Your thoughts are not your identity—practice curiosity about the stories you tell yourself. Emotional regulation is about allowing feelings to move through you, not suppressing them. Stress often comes from giving power away; reframing language can calm the nervous system. Journaling or “thought-dumping” before bed is a simple practice to improve sleep and mental clarity. Choosing empowering “I am” statements (I am abundant, I am enough) helps rewire self-perception. Seeing others as souls beyond titles can reduce friction in conversations and relationships. Building a deeper relationship with yourself creates generational healing and legacy. Emotional resilience is developed through practice—awareness, curiosity, and conscious choice.   Connect with the Guest   Website: camillacalberg.com LinkedIn: Camilla Calberg Instagram: @camillacalberg YouTube: Camilla Calberg Free Resource: 7-Day Belief Challenge (available on her website) Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?   DM on PodMatch: Send me a message Disclaimer   This video is for educational and informational purposes only.

If you've ever tried to push away anxiety or depression when they show up, you probably already know: Fighting these complex, difficult emotions usually doesn't work. In fact, our resistance often makes the experience even more challenging.  In today's practice, Ed Halliwell offers a guided visualization based on a foundational mindful question: What if you don't try to push this experience away, but instead watch it as it plays out?  Ed Halliwell is a mindfulness teacher and writer, based in Sussex and London, UK. He is author of three books: Into The Heart of Mindfulness, How To Live Well By Paying Attention and (as co-author) The Mindful Manifesto and teaches courses and retreats to public groups, in organizations and to individuals, face-to-face and online via Skype. He is also an advisor to The Mindfulness Initiative, which is supporting the Mindfulness All-Party Parliamentary Group to develop mindfulness-based policies for the UK.

In my latest solo episode, I explore the fascinating dynamics of self-disclosure in the workplace, drawing insights from recent research. Discover how sharing positive experiences can elevate emotional well-being, enhance work energy, and foster deeper connections with colleagues, while venting about negative experiences might have the opposite effect.We also examine the motivations behind why we share, including connecting, venting, or seeking advice, and how they impact our well-being. To close, we consider the intriguing interplay of mismatched intentions, where what we are looking for is not returned and how Craig also unpacks the intriguing concept of response mismatches, where the intention to connect can be misaligned and strategies we can use, as both a sharer and listener, to avoid this unfortunate outcome.Tune in as explore an issue that we all face and learn evidence-based practices that can deepen the quality of our communication and connection.What You'll Learn- How sharing positive experiences can boost your energy and strengthen connections with colleagues- The potential downsides of venting- The crucial role of intentions in self-disclosure; why we share impacts what we receive in return- The role of intention in improving the quality of our conversations- How to avoid misalignment between our intentions and our impactKEYWORDSPositive Leadership, Group Dynamics, Positive Communication, Self-Disclosure, Emotional Well-being, Mental Health, Managing Professional Relationships, Lead with Intention, High-Quality Conversations, Team Success, The Power of Vulnerability, Emotional Regulation, Support, CEO SuccessRESOURCESDo you have a minute?

In this episode, OT and interoception expert Kelly Mahler uncovers the 8th sense and dives into how interoception plays such a foundational role in children's ability to regulate their bodies, emotions, and behaviors.   Together, we discuss:   - What interoception is and how it impacts everything from toileting and eating to emotional regulation and social connection. - Why some kids struggle to notice or interpret their body's signals and how this can show up as meltdowns, anxiety, or difficulties with attention. - Practical, relational strategies parents can use at home to help kids strengthen interoceptive awareness through play, modeling, and curiosity. - How occupational therapy can support children's sensory and emotional development beyond (spoiler: it's more than improving just handwriting or fine motor skills).   If you've ever wondered why your child seems to go from 0 to 100 in seconds, or why calming strategies don't always seem to “stick,” this conversation will give you new insights and tools to help your child build lifelong regulation skills from the inside out.     LEARN MORE ABOUT MY GUEST:

So you've tried to diet your way to control, but instead, you end up feeling more out of control than ever. Why is that? It's not just about willpower or “falling off track.” Dieting actually dysregulates your entire system — your hunger cues, your emotions, your hormones, even your nervous system. The very rules you're following are what cause you to swing back and forth on the pendulum: restrict, rebel, repeat. In episode 257 of Fitness & Sushi, we'll show you why dieting keeps you stuck in chaos, and how to finally break free by learning to stay regulated instead. In this episode — “How Dieting Dysregulates Your Body and Mind (And What to Do Instead)” — you'll learn…

Ever find yourself saying yes when you're already overwhelmed… or lying in the heat of the moment even though you know better?This video breaks down how ADHD and nervous system dysregulation affects your ability to make real choices. Using a real life example “The Bee and the SUV,” I explain what happens when your brain perceives a threat—and how to get back into decision-making mode instead of reacting in ways that don't serve you.You'll learn:-How your brain reacts to emotional and social threats, not just physical ones-Why we often say “yes” to things we don't want to do (and how to STOP)-How to identify what's really bothering you (the bee) vs. what actually has long-term consequences (the SUV)-Why even lying can be a nervous system response—not always a moral failure.______________________________________________________________________________

✨ Ready to prepare for the marriage you've always wanted?

Have you ever caught yourself thinking, “What's the point? I've tried before and it never works anyway”?That quiet thought is more powerful than most people realize. It's what psychologists call learned helplessness—when repeated disappointments convince your brain that your effort doesn't matter.And here's the thing: it doesn't just live in the “big” areas. It sneaks into your relationships when you stop asking for what you need. It shows up in your career when you don't go after opportunities because you assume the answer is no. It's there when you give up on your health or money goals because “you'll probably quit eventually.”In this episode, I want to slow down and really unpack what's happening in your brain when helplessness sets in—because once you see it for what it is, you don't have to stay stuck there.We'll talk about:Why learned helplessness develops (and how your brain thinks it's keeping you safe).The everyday ways it keeps women circling the same patterns.How to notice when you've quietly stopped trying—not because you can't, but because you stopped believing it matters.What it looks like to unlearn helplessness and rebuild your self-trust in small, powerful ways.If you've been feeling stuck in an “it is what it is” season, this episode is your reminder: helplessness isn't permanent. It's learned—and anything learned can be unlearned.Want to sign up for The Threshold + Elevated EQ ? Join here by Friday, Sept 26th: https://coachingmasterclasses.com/Questions?

In this Q&A episode of the Experience Miracles podcast, Dr. Tony Ebel dives deep into why crawling matters so much for child development and why the CDC's 2022 decision to remove it from developmental milestones was a critical mistake. He explains the neuroscience behind crawling, how it wires the brain for everything from motor coordination to cognitive function, and why skipping crawling can lead to issues like ADHD, sensory processing disorders, and emotional dysregulation later on. Dr. Tony introduces the concept of "stanky leg" crawling (asymmetrical crawling patterns) and explains how subluxations can cause compensatory movement patterns that affect overall brain development. He emphasizes the importance of getting children's nervous systems checked and adjusted to restore proper developmental sequencing.Key Topics & Timestamps([00:02:00]) - The "Stanky Leg" Crawling - Introduction of asymmetrical crawling patterns and why they matter for development.([00:04:00]) - CDC Removes Crawling from Milestones - How the CDC removed crawling from developmental posters in 2022 despite its brain-wiring importance.([00:07:00]) - Get Out of the Medical System - Dr. Tony's "cheat code" for keeping kids healthy by avoiding traditional medical approaches.([00:11:00]) - Subluxation and Motor Dysfunction - Detailed explanation of how subluxations affect crawling ability and brain coordination.([00:16:00]) - Brain Compensation Patterns - How children's brains develop compensatory patterns when proper crawling sequences are disrupted.([00:18:00]) - Raging Bulls vs. Drunken Bulls - Clinical patterns in children who skip crawling: hyperactive vs. inattentive/uncoordinated presentations.([00:24:00]) - Reorganizational Healing - How children spontaneously return to crawling patterns when their nervous systems are properly restored.-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

Beyond the Sessions is answering YOUR parenting questions! In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Hershberg, Dr. Emily Upshur, and I talk about...   Why your child may not calm down, even when you lead with empathy and connection. How to redefine what it means for a strategy to “work” in the heat of the moment. The role of patience and presence when your child's nervous system just isn't ready to shift. Why successful co-regulation doesn't always mean a calm child. How to disengage without disconnecting—and why that can sometimes be the most effective approach. Practical ways to support yourself so you can stay regulated when your child isn't.   If you've ever tried "all the right things" and still found yourself stuck with a child who can't calm down, this episode will help you feel validated, supported, and grounded in what you can (and can't) control.     REFERENCES AND RELATED RESOURCES:

Send us a textEmotional triggers—or as we've come to reframe them, "emotional traps"—are those experiences that send us spiraling into strong reactions that we sometimes regret. We're diving deep into understanding these patterns and how to respond more effectively when they arise.The term "triggered" has become diluted in everyday language. Originally a clinical term associated with PTSD, it's now used casually in ways that sometimes diminish genuine trauma responses. This doesn't mean our emotional reactions aren't valid—they absolutely are—but framing them as "traps" helps distinguish everyday emotional responses while still honoring their significance.What makes these emotional traps particularly challenging is that we often set them ourselves. Maybe you become reactive when important conversations are avoided or when action plans aren't followed through. Perhaps you spiral when situations make you feel that you're "not enough"—that fundamental human fear that drives so much of our behavior. During midlife, particularly through perimenopause, these physical and emotional factors can be amplified, creating what feels like a constant state of emotional volatility.The ultimate goal isn't to eliminate emotional traps entirely—that's not possible as humans. It's to develop awareness of our patterns and prepare thoughtful responses instead of knee-jerk reactions. Join us as we explore this daily work of emotional regulation that builds resilience and ultimately leads to more fulfilling relationships throughout midlife and beyond.Please be sure to checkout our website for previous episodes, our psych-approved resource page, and connect with us on social media!

Scott and I dive into practical strategies that help identify burnout's root causes, often hidden in misalignment with personal values or toxic environments, and offer actionable advice on mitigating its effects. For those skeptical about mindfulness, we share simple practices to integrate reflection into daily life, helping build resilience and safeguard mental health amidst chaos.As the world of work evolves, the conversation shifts toward the future, where skills like collaboration and communication become indispensable.

Joanna Moncrieff is a British psychiatrist and academic. She is Professor of Critical and Social Psychiatry at University College London and a member of the Critical Psychiatry Network. She is the author of The Myth of the Chemical Cure and The Bitterest Pills, which are considered central texts in the critical psychiatry movement. Moncrieff is critical of mainstream psychiatry's medical model of mental illness. Professor Moncrief's 2022 paper in molecular psychiatry didn't just make waves, it created a tsunami. Leading a systemic review of five decades of research, she and her team definitively demonstrated what no one had dared to state so clearly that there's no convincing evidence that depression is caused by a serotonin imbalance or any chemical imbalance at all. This paper became one of the most widely read scientific papers in modern history, ranking in the top 5 % of all research ever tracked. The world took notice because the world needed to know. Her groundbreaking new book, Chemically Imbalanced, The Making and Unmaking of the Serotonin Myth, meticulously documents how an entire medical narrative was constructed without scientific foundation marketed to billions and defended by institutions that should know better.https://joannamoncrieff.com/2022 paper in molecular psychiatry on Serotonin Chemically Imbalanced: The Making and Unmaking of the Serotonin Myth Dr. Roger McFillin / Radically Genuine WebsiteYouTube @RadicallyGenuineDr. Roger McFillin (@DrMcFillin) / XSubstack | Radically Genuine | Dr. Roger McFillinInstagram @radicallygenuineContact Radically GenuineConscious Clinician CollectivePLEASE SUPPORT OUR PARTNERS15% Off Pure Spectrum CBD (Code: RadicallyGenuine)10% off Lovetuner click here

Many women struggle for years with overwhelm, emotional chaos, chronic stress, catastrophic thinking, and feeling misunderstood—without realizing the root cause could be ADHD. In this episode, Shanna Pearson, founder of Expert ADHD Coaching and a lifelong ADHD advocate, dives into how to recognize the signs, get an accurate diagnosis, and implement practical tools that actually work. She says that “An estimated 50% to 75% of women struggling with ADHD don't even know that they have it.” And to make matters worse, when they enter perimenopause and menopause, the systems that used to help them cope, often no longer work.

Here's a question that'll make you rethink everything about sales performance: What happens when your team has all the skills, tools, and training they need, but they're still underperforming because they can't regulate their emotions under pressure? That's exactly what Natalie Brooks from Charlotte discovered when she noticed how drastically emotions were impacting her team's performance during tough selling days. Meanwhile, salespeople like Jordan from San Diego are making decisions they later regret—pushing forward on deals they know are wrong just because they look good on paper. If you're nodding your head right now, you're witnessing one of the most overlooked aspects of sales performance: emotional regulation. And it's costing you deals, talent, and revenue. The Dysregulation Problem: When Emotions Hijack Performance Here's the brutal truth: When you're emotionally dysregulated or your nervous system is hijacked by stress, focusing on anything becomes nearly impossible. Your best discovery questions go out the window. Your qualifying discipline disappears. Your prospecting consistency evaporates. Think about it. You can have the perfect sales process, but if your rep is in fight-or-flight mode from a string of rejections, they're not executing that process effectively. They're just going through the motions while their emotional state sabotages their performance. This isn't just about "feeling better." This is about creating the mental and emotional foundation that allows elite sales performance to happen consistently. Why Most Sales Leaders Miss This Completely The reason most sales organizations ignore emotional regulation is the same reason they obsess over talk time metrics—it's easier to focus on activities than outcomes. It's much simpler to say "make more calls" than to create an environment where your team feels safe enough to regulate their emotions and perform at their peak. But here's what happens when you ignore the emotional component of sales: Your reps start making fear-based decisions. They chase deals they know are wrong fits because they're afraid of having an empty pipeline. They avoid difficult conversations because rejection feels personal. They burn out because they're running on adrenaline instead of sustainable energy. Meanwhile, your top performers aren't just skilled, they've learned to manage their emotional state in a way that supports peak performance. The Three Pillars of Emotional Regulation in Sales Personal Regulation: The Foundation Everything starts with personal habits that support emotional stability. Your "why" becomes your anchor during tough moments. When you're tired, exhausted, or questioning what you're doing, that purpose pulls you through. But purpose alone isn't enough. Your daily habits outside of work create the foundation for emotional regulation at work. Sleep, nutrition, exercise, stress management—these aren't "nice to haves." They're the infrastructure that supports your ability to stay sharp and focused when deals get challenging. Team Regulation: Creating Safety As a leader, you have a responsibility to create psychological safety where your team can regulate together. This might look like mid-day resets where everyone takes a few deep breaths or does a quick activity to release tension from difficult calls. The key is consistency. When emotional regulation becomes part of your team culture—not just something you talk about during tough times—it shows that peak performance includes emotional wellness. Process Regulation: Trusting Your System Here's where emotional regulation meets sales discipline. When you have clear qualifying standards and you trust your process, you don't have to make emotional decisions about which deals to pursue. Ultra-high performing salespeople show discipline by recognizing that they only have so many hours in the day. They create rules they can live by rather than relying on gut feelings in the moment.

When estrangement from your child happens, it doesn't just hurt your heart… it rattles your whole nervous system. Estrangement from your child is a trauma, and too often, that part of the conversation often gets left out.

Hey Team! This week, I'm talking with Rita Ramakrishnan, a seasoned strategic executive and leadership coach with over 15 years of experience. Diagnosed with both ADHD and Autism Spectrum during her undergrad years, Rita reframed what could have been limitations into strengths and now looks to uplift other neurodivergent women in leadership roles. Currently, she is pursuing a master's degree in neurodivergent leadership at the University of Pennsylvania, intensifying her expertise in coaching and organizational strategy tailored to neurodivergent individuals. In our conversation, we cover everything from identifying when you're dysregulated (and what to do about it) to designing teams that play to everyone's strengths. Rita walks us through practical tools like outsourcing strategically, tracking your energy to uncover strengths, and building a leadership charter so teams can work more effectively together. It's a conversation about leading authentically, creating systems that work for your brain, and how to advocate for your needs without falling into people-pleasing traps. If you'd life to follow along on the show notes page you can find that at HackingYourADHD.com/243 YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/y835cnrk Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HackingYourADHD This Episode's Top Tips 1. Try creating a Minimum Viable Routine - your baseline routine that consists of the bare minimum you need in place to function. The point of an MVR is to take those non-negotiables and lock them in, either with automation, outsourcing, or simple systems. That way, when ADHD throws a curveball, you still have the essentials covered. 2. Instead of only measuring productivity by what gets checked off a to-do list, try looking at how you feel after activities. Track when you walk away from a meeting or task feeling energized, and when you walk away feeling drained. 3. Rejection sensitivity hits hard for many folks with ADHD. A short email reply, a period at the end of a text, or even a coworker sounding rushed can feel like a personal rejection. Rita's advice is to deliberately separate yourself from the situation and try to depersonalize feedback. This reframing can help shift from identity-based thinking (like “I'm the problem”) to more situation-based thinking (“this may be tough, but it's fixable”).

Does your child's behavior sometimes trigger such an instant, overwhelming reaction that you find yourself yelling before you even realize what happened? That moment when your jaw clenches, your shoulders tense, and suddenly you're saying things you wish you could take back? You're experiencing what millions of parents face daily - a nervous system response that happens faster than conscious thought. This episode reveals the science behind why willpower alone isn't enough to stop yelling, and introduces you to specific, learnable skills that can transform how you respond to your child's most challenging moments. You'll discover what's actually happening in your body during those triggered moments, why suppressing your anger isn't the answer, and how your emotional responses are teaching your child crucial lessons about handling life's difficulties. Most importantly, you'll learn practical techniques that work in real parenting situations - not theoretical advice that falls apart when your preschooler has a meltdown in the grocery store. This summary episode makes all the research from several much longer episodes available for time-strapped parents.

Parents struggle because stress triggers happen faster than rational thought. Why do I yell at my child even when I don't want to?Your sympathetic nervous system floods your body with stress hormones before your rational brain registers what's happening, making yelling an automatic response. What are the best emotional regulation techniques for parents?Simple grounding techniques like conscious breathing, body awareness, and reappraisal strategies that work with your nervous system instead of against it. When you use these techniques makes all the difference. How do I stop yelling as a parent without suppressing my emotions?Learn to acknowledge your emotions while using grounding techniques to create space between your automatic reaction and your chosen response. Does yelling at your child affect them long-term?Yes, children learn emotional regulation by watching how you handle intense moments. Your responses teach them whether emotions are safe or dangerous. How can I improve my emotional regulation as a busy parent?Practice recognizing your body's early warning signals and use quick techniques like one conscious breath or muscle awareness throughout the day. This will help your body to learn the skills when the stakes are lower, so they'll be more accessible in the difficult moments. What...
