[Regulation Practice] Regulate Before You Engage: 5-Minute Guided Resourcing - Wired Divergent: Nervous System Regulation & Mental Health for Neurodivergent Brains

Description

Your body is already bracing for a conversation that hasn't started yet. This 5-minute guided resourcing practice helps you regulate your nervous system before a meeting, phone call, or any interaction your body is anticipating. Resourcing is a skill from the Community Resilience Model (CRM) that uses a positive memory, person, place, or activity to shift your nervous system toward steadiness before you need it. In this guided practice, you'll ground yourself by noticing physical contact with surfaces around you, bring a resource to mind, track what happens in your body, and anchor that sensation so it's available to you during the conversation itself. No breathwork, no visualization, no sitting still with your eyes closed required.This is an educational self-care practice. You know your body better than anyone, so modify or skip anything that doesn't work for you.About Audio and VideoThis show is available as a video on YouTube and Spotify.
