Society & Culture
In this conversation Jenny and Robert discuss:
- What the optimal zone is and how it relates to our nervous system
- What the defensive zone is and how it relates to our nervous system
- How our triggers are amplified by past trauma, agitation from other events of the day, and chronic stress
- How we can break the cycle of reflexive response when we are triggered and develop new patterns to become less triggered next time
- The notion of optimal zone hygiene, and practices we can employ to stay in our optimal zone
- Optimal zone first aid; i.e. things we can do in groups as preparation to better respond when someone is triggered
- Healing, particularly with respect to intergenerational trauma
- How this conversation fits into Robert's course at the Context Institute, Bright Future Now
