Emotional Regulation: How to Feel Your Feelings Flexibly
Dr. Rick and Forrest discuss how we can regulate our emotions by feeling, managing, and processing them more effectively. They begin by unpacking common misconceptions and clarifying what healthy regulation looks like - feeling our feelings without being overwhelmed by them. From there, they walk through the three key steps of emotional regulation, focusing on practical tools like cognitive defusion and opposite action. Topics include interoception, the window of tolerance, cognitive bypassing, suppression/repression, and finding a balance between acceptance and agency.
Key Topics:
1:59: What Does Emotional Regulation Look Like?
6:08: The Three Aspects of Emotional Regulation
12:35: Step 1: Feeling Your Feelings
27:20: Step 2: Managing Your Feelings
58:50: Step 3: Processing (and maybe expressing) Your Feelings
