About this listen

Dysregulation is often referred to as being triggered or upset. Quite often people who are unaware of their dysregulation are angry, explosive, or they might shut down or be overly emotional. Dysregulation can be exaggerated by difficult past experiences - especially in childhood. It is also useful to understand that dysregulation is the CORRECT expression of a properly functioning nervous system - everyone can become dysregulated at times.

There's even better news - you're NOT broken! The body has natural ways that it self-regulates, and you can easily learn and employ these strategies to help get the body in a calm, relaxed state so that you can start to feel better.

This book might be for you if you notice:

  • Inability to regulate emotions or moods
  • Inability to control impulses or behavior
  • Difficulty maintaining attention or focus
  • Difficulty with self-soothing behaviors, such as eating, sleeping, or substance use

The feeling of dysregulation can be described as a feeling of panic, fear, or overwhelm. Stress can be toxic to the body, and can even become a neurotoxin if cortisol is left unchecked.

This book will give you easy-to-use, and easy-to-understand methods of regulating the nervous system and a better understanding of why and how they work.

I’m new to audible and this was on the premium plus section, I don’t think it was the full book but either way, I think it would be better for an absolute beginner, it’s all stuff you’ve heard before.
I found the beginning quite negative feeling personally.
A lot of things were repeated and said multiple times like a lot of the methods. You get told to check out other people’s work also, feels like a compilation of all the self help stuff on this topic that I’ve already spent years hearing about, having a tool that helps you put them into practise is different though rather than listing them out. Only part I found helpful is when your body processes stressful events when you feel safe.
