Regulate & Rewire: An Anxiety & Depression Podcast

Proactive Regulation: Long-Term Strategies for a Resilient Nervous System (Part 7: B2B Series)

Amanda Armstrong Season 1 Episode 107

In Part 7 of our Back to Basics series, we explore proactive regulation as the long-term approach to healing anxiety and depression through a nervous system lens. Building on our previous discussion of reactive tools, this episode examines how to address the root causes of your symptoms.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Understanding regulated living as a strategic approach to getting out of chronic survival mode
  • The importance of identifying your unique stress contributors through a comprehensive assessment
  • How to create a personalized healing plan based on what feels meaningful and accessible
  • Key areas to evaluate: physical health, connection, environment, mindset, and daily stressors
  • Why small, consistent 1% changes create sustainable transformation over time

3 Key Takeaways:

  • Proactive regulation is essential for long-term healing: It involves creating sustainable habits and addressing underlying causes to break free from chronic survival mode, moving beyond in-the-moment reactive tools.
  • The most effective healing path is personalized and structured, focusing on what feels meaningful and accessible for you to change next
  • Small, consistent changes (those 1% improvements) layered over time create the most sustainable transformation when supported by the right guidance and community

Next Episode Preview: Join me for part 7 where we'll discuss lab work, what it is, why it matters, and why I consider it a key piece of healing.
