Dysregulationdysregulation

Dysregulation is the disturbance of the nervous system's balance and its moving outside the window of tolerance. This can be upward, as hyperarousal, or downward, as hypoarousal. Dysregulation is not a flaw but a response the system gives under strain. Somatic work often aims to accompany the return from this dysregulation to balance. Noticing dysregulation is the first step in responding to it.
