Decades of work with trauma clients has taught me volumes about how the human nervous system functions and heals. If you want to understand a system, stress it and observe how it falls apart and what pulls it back together. For the human nervous system, trauma is the stressor. Integration, connection, and relationships are the healers.

Co-Regulation means two or more people supporting each other in regulating together. There is nothing like a good friend to get you going when you are stuck or calm you down when you are upset. Co-Regulation is an efficient shortcut to a healthy resilient, nervous system, but because we don’t have familiar language for it, we often miss out on its benefits.
