By Anne Showalter In the summer of 2022, both my father and my brother passed away. In both cases, they were terminally ill, their bodies were tired, and it was time to let go. This is my story about Self-Reg and Grieving. Despite my cognitive...
By Melissa Pinnell When I started learning about Self-Reg the idea of planting seeds of knowledge aligned well with my journey. I was starting the journey on my own. I was able to look at my own regulation but also spread a LOT of seeds along the way. I was able to...
