Settling

If you are working with activation: fast breath, racing, bracing, overwhelm, consider the following access channels:

• Body & Movement: Feet pressing into the floor. Slow weight-shift walk.

• Sensory: Warm mug in both hands. Warm palms on face or chest.

• Verbal & Cognitive: Extended exhale on a count. Square breathing.

• Relational: A steady voice, slowed to the pace you want. Attunement in pairs.

• Meaning & Lineage: Those who stood here.A comfort phrase in a first language.
