Integration doesn’t mean eliminating these fluctuations—it means welcoming them with curiosity and creating flexibility in how we move between them.
When we’re integrated in this domain, we can:
🌡️ Recognize when our nervous system is in fight, flight, freeze, or fawn
🧘♀️ Access tools to self-regulate and return to a state of balance
🔄 Shift between emotional states without losing our sense of self
🫶 Hold space for multiple truths and feelings at once (e.g. scared and hopeful)
✨ In short: state integration helps us respond with intention, rather than react from dysregulation.
📌 Reflection Prompt:
What inner state have you been finding yourself in most often lately—anxious, numb, overactivated, shut down? What helps you shift out of that state—or soften it with compassion?
🌱 You don’t need to control every emotion. But you can learn to listen to what it’s asking for.
Join us next week as we explore Domain 7: Interpersonal Integration—and how deep, attuned relationships support a more whole and connected self.
