Self-regulation is dependent on co-regulation early in life. Consistent nonverbal reassurance from a partner changes the brain's wiring so that over time they are triggered less often.
What does it take to heal from a childhood marked by alcohol adversity? In this heartfelt episode of 'The Bear Comes Home From The Bar', host Terrance Fleming sits down with Lauren to discuss her personal journey of recovery. Lauren opens up about her experiences growing up in a household overshadowed by alcohol and how she has navigated the path to healing. The conversation delves into the concept of co-regulation, a vital skill for developing self-regulation and self-soothing abilities.
Terrance and Lauren explore how consistent nonverbal reassurance from a partner or caregiver can rewire the brain, making it easier to manage triggers and stress. They also touch on the broader impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and toxic stress, shedding light on the long-term health challenges many face. This episode is not just about highlighting the struggles but also about finding hope and resilience. It's a must-listen for anyone who has faced similar adversities or knows someone who has.
