Show notes

A discussion on emotional regulation strategies learned from family systems, where unhealthy coping mechanisms like anger, sadness, or fear are modeled. These strategies generate excessive emotional responses that don't match the present situation. Techniques like noting feeling states can help gain clarity on one's emotions and sensations in the body.
