I am teaching a new masterclass for parents, teachers and anyone who wants to understand how to hack their own nervous system and be more organized, calm and supportive to themselves and others. See the attached info for more information. Class will be virtual on 7/15 and in person on 7/13. This class is FREE to attend. Pre-registration is required. Let me know if you have questions.
Masterclass: Mastering the Art of Self-Regulation
STOP- check in with yourself. How does it feel to be in your brain and body right now? Feel like you are on your last nerve? Too tired and foggy to work on your to do list? Craving gentle touch? Want some time alone? Do any of these scenarios sound familiar?
• You are trying to make dinner. Your head is pounding, and the kids are crying about homework. Your fuse is short, and you snap at everyone.
• You are trying to get everyone out the door in the morning, and no one can find their shoes or backpack and you realize you will be late for a meeting and your car is low on gas.
• You are having the same argument you have had 1000 times with your spouse or child, and you feel guilty for yelling.
The way that we navigate through our daily routines is governed by our ability to self- regulate and is heavily influenced by our level of internal awareness and our understanding of our own nervous system. We can think of our regulation as a volume dial; we actually have a “sweet spot” where things flow more smoothly, and we feel “in control.” If the dial is too high or too low, we are not able to function at our best and can feel like we are at the mercy of our emotions and our impulses. This can have a particularly diOicult eOect on our relationships.
The good news is that self-regulation can be learned and mastered through the practice of observation and self-care. This innovative masterclass will lead you on a guided journey to understand your own nervous system and how well it is regulated. And when you can master this critical life skill, you also become an oasis for others in your life who might need you to help co-regulate them when they are struggling.
Getting and staying regulated can have far-reaching benefits, including better immunity, better sleep and better communication in relationships. Who wouldn’t want that? Some of the other things you can learn in this workshop:
• What is self-regulation?
• Why does it matter? How does it relate to the brain and brain development?
• How can I understand my own system?
• How can I support my spouse or children when they are struggling?
• How can I understand my triggers and what are the strategies for recovery?
• What are some simple techniques for activating the vagus nerve (the master nerve)?
• How can I communicate about what I need to people in my life?
