018 - Mini Musings: Embracing Resuscitation

 
 

Welcome, dear listener. In today’s mini musing, I’m sharing one of my favorite tools for threshold moments—resuscitation. And I’m gently asking the question, What could it look like to embrace a period of resuscitation with a “yes to myself” mindset?

Using the framework of the window of tolerance, I describe how we might react to stress differently depending on the width of our window. I also share stories from my own life and explore how we can create opportunities to keep our windows of tolerance more open.

Tune in as I discuss:

  • What mini musings are and what I hope they offer you

  • The time I had a food truck come to my house for a different kind of potluck

  • What a resuscitation phase is

  • Some things I experienced in my own resuscitation phase

  • The window of tolerance framework

  • Saying no during resuscitative times in order to say yes to our own wellbeing

  • Building in time for containment
