Did you know that love can be a powerful antidote to activation?! 

One of the amazing things about accessing the feeling of love is that it causes the brain to release oxytocin, which is a powerful hormone that is even sometimes referred to as the "love drug". 

This hormone is also a neurotransmitter, and so when released sends all sorts of "feel good" signals to the brain and nervous system to signal safety - which is a key component of nervous system regulation.

Listen in as I take you through a quick exercise that will help you access this resource state and will be a support to you the next time you feel triggered or dysregulated.
