How to Master your Nervous System for Productivity and Joy - Jonny Miller
Deep Dive with Ali Abdaal
Maintain Connection On Communication, First of All, Don't Go Into Defensive State
Prioritize the nervous system in difficult conversations to ensure both parties are within their window of tolerance for effective communication. If triggered or reactive, pause the conversation, reset by engaging in calming activities, and return to the discussion when grounded and calm. Be aware of your body's physical reactions to identify early warning signs of anger or shutdown tendencies and take a moment for self-regulation. Maintain connection by being present in the conversation, acknowledging both your own and the other person's experiences, and speaking from your first-person experience rather than projecting stories from your mind. This approach fosters a deeper sense of connection and understanding during challenging conversations.
