Nervous System Regulation Techniques
Video TrainingÂ
Alcohol numbs emotions and creates a feeling of dysregulation (e.g., stress and overwhelm). When you quit drinking, you need practices to regulate your nervous system so you can access a state of calm, reduce anxiety, and enjoy better sleep without turning to alcohol. The benefits go well beyond decreasing alcohol consumption. Nervous system regulation is a must have resource for every human.Â
