Emotional Regulation 101

Emotional Regulation 101

WHO THIS COURSE IS FOR:

If you’re struggling with snapping at your family, playing the worst-case scenario in your head, or beating yourself up constantly, it’s okay. It’s human. It’s normal to get annoyed about waiting in a long line, to snap at our partner’s after a long day.

You have permission to get upset and to feel overwhelmed.

Know that you’re not alone in that.

Do you bottle it up and put on a smile while you feel like you are going to pull your hair out or literally punch somebody in the face?

You’ve got so much going on, the last thing you need to feel out of control over is your emotions.

If you:

• Feel burnt out and don't know how to recharge your battery,

• Don't have the time (or money) to practice "self-care”, and are looking for small things you can do for a bit of reprieve on a daily basis,

• Want to feel less burdened by fear and self-doubt,

Emotional Regulation 101 can help.

I teach emotional regulation every single day. As a social worker, a therapist I have to practice what I preach.

These are not skills that I invented. They are 100% evidence-based and researched-backed.

I break down principles from dialectical behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and interpersonal neurobiology to teach you skills that you can start to use right now.

HOW YOU WILL CHANGE:

• You feel more control over your emotions and can identify your triggers and pause before you respond.

• You learn ways to emotionally regulate and unwind by using small, easy practices to feel better rather than reaching for the glass or wine, the chips, or the credit card.

• You nurture and nourish yourself instead of neglecting or punishing yourself (purposefully or not).

• You stop sabotaging yourself.

• You live in alignment with your values and with integrity.
