Self regulation helps us concentrate, manage disappointment, reach out to others, and engage in the world. Regulation skills are key to healthy emotions and behavior. On the other hand, when we're prone to dysregulation, we may experience learning difficulties, poor mental health, and aggression.

  • How does regulation influence the way we feel and behave?
  • What changes regulation for better and for worse?
  • What are common ways we become dysregulated?
  • How do targeted interventions improve our ability to stay regulated?
    In Regulation from the Inside Out, author Dr. Carolen Hope explores these questions and provides more than forty activities, reflections, and experiences for regulation mastery in children and adults. This guide is organized around three systems and the basic needs that often drive dysregulation: the need to be safe, to be seen, and to be accepted.

    Using clear and accessible language, it draws from disciplines like neuroscience, mindfulness, trauma therapies, and movement and exercise research. The suggested activities and strategies are designed to strengthen regulation skills to elicit positive change.
