Happy New Year, Everybody!

Before going into trauma sensitive topics, I felt I needed to provide everyone with some tools to process any upsetting and/or uncomfortable feelings that might arise from discussions of historical traumas and systemic oppression. Also, it's a tough time of year, so these might just be useful for you if you're feeling upset about other things/people at this time.

Episode outline includes:

  • Strategies (and I've time marks included below if you're wanting to find specific ones quickly)
    • Intro to strategies starts near 05:40
    • Physiological needs starts near 06:50
    • Calming strategies starts near 09:50
    • "Burning up energy stores" starts near 18:50
  • What bottom-up processing is
  • Reframing our definition of emotions as signals instead of "good" or "bad"
