Self-Control: Fear Driven and Anger Driven Impulsivity, Aggression and Self Control in Everyday Life
Ep 60. Explore the concept of self-control and its impact on emotional responses and behavior. Learn about factors like stress, trauma, and brain function that influence self-regulation, and discover strategies for fostering emotional resilience.
The idea of self-control often intersects with our beliefs and emotional responses, influencing how we perceive and react to words and perceived threats. Even without actual danger, the perceived threat can trigger emotional priming, especially for individuals affected by stress, trauma, or brain injury.
Our brain's ability to self-regulate is crucial in preventing impulsive actions, aggression, and violence. However, disruptions in these neural pathways can lead to lapses in self-control and heightened impulsivity.
Understanding these dynamics sheds light on the importance of emotional resilience and proactive strategies for managing stress and trauma. Explore how nurturing self-regulation can foster a safer and more balanced behavioral response. Walk confidently on your journey towards emotional well-being. Walk well.
