Sample Book Insights:

#1 The autonomic nervous system, which is responsible for the reactions of the body, is also responsible for the responses and recoveries from the challenges of daily living.

#2 The autonomic nervous system is made up of three parts, each with its own set of protective actions. The earliest dorsal vagal system brings strategies of immobilization. The sympathetic system, next to arrive, adds fight and flight. The most recent ventral vagal system offers the ability for safety through connection and social engagement.

#3 Neuroception, detection without awareness, describes the way the autonomic nervous system interfaces with the world. Reshaping the autonomic nervous system involves first making the implicit experience explicit by bringing perception to neuroception and then adding context through the lens of discernment.

#4 Co-regulation is a biological imperative. It is essential to survival. The ability to self-regulate is built on ongoing experiences of co-regulation. With a reliable, regulating other, we engage in the rhythm of reciprocity and build experiences of safety in connection.
