Five principles . . .
1. The behaviors we do that appear to sabotage our well-being are often our best attempt at creating safety in the present moment.

threatened – and accessing healthier, more effective
ways of sensing safety in the present moment.

Five principles . . . 5. The more moments we have of sensing safety in healthy ways, the more likely these "new" templates will became the default response in times of crisis and the more we learn to trust ourselves.
