Epi 32 - How Co-regulation Helps with Habits

Think Beyond The Drink

In this episode, we dive into the complex dance of human interactions and how they often lead us to pick up less-than-ideal habits and emotions.
We explore the concept of co-regulation, an emotional dance we share with those close to us, and how it can sometimes turn into co-escalation, sparking undesirable behaviors. Through real-life examples, including my personal experiences with my husband and children, we dissect the 'fear dance'—a cycle of interactions driven by our core fears and subconscious triggers.
I'll guide you through identifying your emotional 'buttons,' understanding their roots, and developing strategies to shift from co-escalation to self-regulation and back to healthy co-regulation.
By the end of this episode, you'll be armed with practical tips to manage emotions, choose better habits, and improve your relationships. Don't miss out on this journey to better emotional well-being and balanced interactions.
