WHAT TO DO WHEN ACTIVATED
What works best for me when I am activated/dysregulated is...
A. De-Escalate the Reaction
De-escalating the intensity of my reaction
helps me regain some access to my cortex,
making it easier to look for and neutralize the past trauma.
B. Neutralize the Anchor
In order to be able to clearly see what is true in the present,
I need to remove the filter of the past.
To do that, I need to figure out what the past trauma (anchor) is
and resolve it (neutralize the emotional charge attached to it).
