Let's talk about the nervous system and a framework to help you understand what is happening in yours!
The Window of Tolerance, from Stephen Porges' Polyvagel Theory, says there is a zone that is optimal for our nervous system to be in. We manage stress well while here, are chill and can experience our emotions without dissociation and overwhelm. Sounds like a good thing to know about in life, right? Yup!
How can this help you?
What interested you about this theory? What did you learn about yourself?
Some terms you might want to reference:
Ventral-when you are in the window of tolerance, you're nervous system is chill, you are relaxed, receiving and welcoming.
Dorsal-the response that is collapse, includes fear, looks like dissociation and is the freeze response
Sympathetic--the response is activation, includes fear and is the fight or flight response
