  • Such great information!

    Thank you for sharing science backed nervous system regulation causes and tools to help. We need more of this! Most therapists only look at nervous system activation thru a big T trauma lens. But we as parents know that it’s the overactivated amygdala.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Is Something in Your Home Quietly Affecting Your Family's Nervous System? | Nervous System Regulation | E437
Q: Is keeping Wi‑Fi on all night a problem?
Yes, in many cases, turning off Wi‑Fi at night reduces stimulation and improves sleep, which supports better nervous system regulation for both kids and adults.
Is Something in Your Home Quietly Affecting Your Family's Nervous System? | Nervous System Regulation | E437
Q: Sleeping with your phone next to your bed is harmless?
It depends on the exposure and the individual, but evidence suggests it can disrupt sleep onset and brain activity, particularly in children, so being mindful and reducing exposure is prudent.
How Can I Be Less Emotionally Reactive? The One Simple Tool You Are Missing | Nervous System Regulation | E432
Q: How do I help my child understand the internal sensations and regulate when they're neurodivergent and have sensory issues?
The host explains that when a caregiver is activated, the brain treats inputs as threats, so regulation must be established first. By teaching the nervous system to regulate through simple, repeatable practices and helping the child connect bodily sensations to stress, you create a foundation for better self-awareness and regulation.
The Hidden Signs of PANS/PANDAS Every Parent Misses—And Why It Looks Like ADHD, Anxiety or Even Autism with Dr. Nancy O'Hara l Emotional Dysregulation in Children l E408
Q: If someone suspects acute onset PANS, what steps should they take to get help?
seek out a clinician who knows the condition and bring research articles or books; join support networks, and look for practitioners who will listen and who can guide you through a stepwise plan, starting with low-impact interventions and adding supports as needed.
The Hidden Signs of PANS/PANDAS Every Parent Misses—And Why It Looks Like ADHD, Anxiety or Even Autism with Dr. Nancy O'Hara l Emotional Dysregulation in Children l E408
Q: What do you think in your clinical experience are some of the hidden signs that get ignored, even by parents and practitioners?
somatic symptoms like urinary frequency, bedwetting, and sleep disturbances are often overlooked, and OCD can present as intrusive thoughts without obvious compulsions; the triggers such as mold and dormants infections are commonly missed, which can delay recognition and treatment.
