Co-Regulation Through Love

Today, John explores the connection between love and the nervous system through the lens of Polyvagal Theory. He discusses how understanding the four states of the nervous system—ventral vagal, sympathetic, dorsal vagal, and play—can enhance emotional connection and emphasizes the importance of co-regulation, self-care, and creative actions to foster a deeper bond with partners.
