An activated fear response keeps us alert after danger has passed or between the passing of new waves of dangers… it is a fabulous mechanism that has kept our ancestors alive long enough to procreate! But it needs interrupting so we can have a little relief between the waves.

[Emotional Systems @EmotionalSystem]

The longer our experience of fear and terror has lasted, the more deeply that it can become engrained in our synapses. We know this is the same for other mammalian species, sadly like us, the fear networks of their brains can become ‘over’ alert too. https://t.co/FeI08g3dQc

You have an innate capacity to move away from or #freeze around life threatening situations & move towards #safety. When safe - blood can flow freely in our brains and bodies, bringing #flexibility, #integration & conscious understanding of our world.

We can’t learn consciously when we are overwhelmed. so noticing and responding is vital. #fear #anxiety #polyvagal #disconnection #learningzone #regulatetolearn #activatetolearn

Our emergency response to overwhelm can work in seconds...

If your body is signalling overwhelm, this is our quick reduction tactic. Deeply breathe, wiggle and move, sigh loudly. Gives a regulating message to your fear system, gets you back into a ready for action place.

What gets between you and your powerful innate emotional systems? The fuel for our life can be under layers of behaviours and anxiety that serves to dull their function. What’s stopping you being curious, safe, assertive, caring, connected, playful and feeling good today?

It’s not rocket science. It’s neuroscience, our birth right and gifts from evolution. Yours are all free and available even... especially... in moments of crisis, where change and adapting would serve us all well. #beconnected #emotionalsystems
