In this episode, Lauren focuses on how to move the second two pillars of the 4 Ps—Policy and Practice—out of survival mode using the 5 Ives Framework. Lauren dives into the sensory elements of physical spaces (Practice) that influence regulation, from temperature and textures to visuals and ambient sounds. She also discusses how organizations can take a trauma-informed approach to Policy, advocating for changes that support well-being while aligning with organizational goals.

If you haven't already, check out Five Ives to see how strategies like this can be applied to adults, especially in the workplace. Five Ives works with staff in high burnout jobs to help them incorporate regulation strategies into their daily routines.

Try-at-home tip:  Eat Superfoods like goji berries, blueberries, dark chocolate, and leafy greens to help you stay more regulated!
