I never even understood what emotional grounding was. All I knew was I lived up in my head a lot. On this episode we'll talk a little about the effects of traumas and how we can use a simple technique in a moment to get "out of our head" and back into the present when traumas have us wanting to fight, flight, freeze or fawn.
It's all about 5, 4, 3, 2, 2
