In this episode, Eileen explores the concepts of nervous system regulation, self-regulation, and co-regulation; emphasizing the importance of understanding how our nervous systems respond to stress and trauma. She discusses the differences between grounding and anchoring techniques, the impact of hyper-independence on emotional management, and the necessity of practicing somatic tools regularly to build resilience and emotional capacity.

• Calmness is not the only indicator of being regulated.
• Self-regulation is an internal process, while co-regulation involves others.
• Co-regulation provides the scaffolding for self-regulation.
• Hyperindependence can stem from a lack of co-regulation in childhood.
• Grounding connects awareness to the present moment.
• Anchoring helps maintain a sense of safety and support.

• Building resilience requires consistent practice and experience.
