Anxiety often arises when we recognize how little control we have over certain situations. During stressful or uncertain times, the nervous system reacts to perceived threats, triggering protective responses that can leave us tense, uneasy, and disconnected from clear thinking. 

Emotional regulation helps us identify what is happening in the body and use strategies to shift back to a calmer, more balanced state. This Justice Clearinghouse webinar will explore the science behind dysregulation and provide practical tools to help you stay centered, focused, and thoughtful when the storm is raging outside.
