@erinrackham: “Regulating your nervous system” is an embodied experience. You have to *feel* the feelings before you can regulate back down to homeostasis. ❤️‍🩹 Crying. Singing. Screaming. Flapping. Running. Dancing. Shaking. Talking. Shouting. Punching. Hugging. Kicking. Moving. Etc. You get the idea. We can’t really be effective long-term if we don’t have regular practices of embodiment to help us process overwhelming feelings as they come up in our bodies. **Obviously there are easier ways to escape from the difficult feelings—substances, dopamine binges, dissociating, etc.—but if we want to really be living from a grounded place, I believe we need to be making regular contact with our body and how it’s experiencing the world physiologically. ❤️

I love living alone as before I couldn't sing, dance, stim in privacy or without judgement. Being able to has helped so much. I didn't realize how much I needed it. Thanks for modeling this

I have to say I used to think sad sad songs regulated me but now I realize it was just another part of the spin cycle.

We have to feel the things then work with them, no getting quiet! This week was me being depressed, but now I am in action!
