Dr. Rhysa's storytelling about her nine-year-old self navigating her mother's cancer diagnosis is both heart-wrenching and inspiring.

This podcast episode promises to be a thought-provoking and transformative experience for anyone seeking to unlock the secrets of their own nervous system and break free from the shackles of past traumas.

Here are the golden nuggets from Dr. Rhysa on how to regulate your nervous system:

1. Identify Your Current State: Understand and identify the state you're in—green, red, yellow, blue, or purple—before building a toolbox of regulation tools that match that state.

2. Have a Toolbox for Each State: Create specific toolboxes for each state (e.g., calmer tools for yellow, more engaging tools for purple) to regulate your nervous system effectively.

3. Practice Tools When Calm: Practice using regulation tools when you're calm, as it's ineffective to introduce new tools when you're dysregulated. Your body craves predictability and safety in those states.

4. Look at What You're Already Doing: Recognize that you're already using tools unknowingly. Tools are sensory-based and can include everyday activities or experiences that signal safety to your nervous system.

5. Tools Don't Have to Take Long: Tools can be quick and simple, taking as little as three seconds, and don't need to be time-consuming. They can be effective in regulating your nervous system in various situations.
