Polyvagal Theory: Become an Active Operator of Your Nervous System During Grief with Deb Dana
Update: 2024-06-07
Description
Grief is something that everyone feels, but how they process it depends on their past history. So how do we know which way we experience grief?
There are challenges each of us must face and overcome based on our past experiences. These experiences will help decide what our grief looks like and if we will get stuck in grief. Today, Deb Dana, a polyvagal therapist, joins me to discuss grief, but in particular, what are Dorsal Days and how do we work these days to create life after loss!
You’ll hear more about:
- The three organizing principles of the nervous system and how they influence our unique way through grief
- What not to ask someone who is grieving
- Asking this key question to become an active operator of your nervous system
- The surprising equation our nervous system uses to create our grief reactions
- Why dysregulation is a normal response and the key to returning to regulation
- The profound impact of our preexisting state on the grief response
- The most important thing to provide your nervous system during times of grief
- The role of glimmers in grief
