I provides insights on how to navigate through hard times while maintaining a sense of regulation and clarity. I am sharing 5 things to consider when trying to regulate through more than the everyday stress of life. Takeaways Regulating through big life events is crucial for mental health. Dysregulation can feel justified during tough times, but it's important to recognize it. Grief is a natural human experience that cannot be bypassed through regulation. Regulation helps in observing and managing survival mode during crises. Acceptance of reality is key to moving forward after a setback. Connect with Jenna Instagram TikTok
