Ep. 172: What does it mean to 'Heal'?

The Baffling Behavior Show {Parenting after Trauma}

The question of ‘can I heal’ or 'can my child heal' or ‘how do I (or my child) heal’ is a tricky one.

Healing is a word that gets used a lot without really pausing to ask ourselves what it actually means.

If we are aiming for a nebulous goal that hasn’t been defined, it will feel impossible to reach. Impossible tasks often feel hopeless.
In this episode, you’ll learn

• Why it’s most useful to stay focused on widening our window of stress tolerance
• How co-regulation contributes to healing
• How memory relates to trauma symptoms and healing

Resources mentioned in this podcast:

• Scaffolding Is A Form Of Co-Regulation {Ep 82}
• Match The Energy, NOT The Dysregulation {EP 155}
