Part 2: Regulation in the Real World
In this episode, Lauren dives into the real world challenges of creating a morning routine that supports nervous system regulation, especially when life feels chaotic. She breaks down the morning into four key parts and offers practical, compassionate strategies for bringing more calm and intention to each one, from wake up rituals to the first interaction of the workday.
Whether your mornings start in a sprint or you’re just looking for a little more stability, this conversation reminds us that regulation isn’t about perfection. It’s about starting small, finding what works for you, and building from there. Lauren also shares a peek into her own routine and struggles, making this episode as relatable as it is actionable.
