Self regulation - helps to keep our stress at a comfortable levels (arousal) and avoid escalated negative emotions (affect).

Our coping strategies help us feel at home in

ourselves

Page 14: Luke Tanner

Self Regulation

To stay in our comfort zone we need the following abilities –

• To know and manage our feelings and emotions

• To reflect and respond adaptively to situations

• To communicate our feelings and needs effectively

• To make use of these abilities in relationships

These processes require “Neural Integration” i.e. different parts

of the brain working with each other in the service of self

regulation. (D.Siegal)

The capacity for self regulation is undermined by the

neuropathology of a dementia!

Loss of capacity to self regulate

=

Vulnerable to traumatic stress + heightened negative emotion

Hyper or hypo arousal leads to intense negative emotions

Comfort – calming/soothing, people, places and things …

Occupation –Stimulating/enlivening, people, places and things …

Relationships with people places and

You’re a person, in a place, with things!

What can you do to create a culture of care that helps people with a dementia feel at home?

Page 38: Luke Tanner

“Contact with dementia or other forms of cognitive disability can - and indeed should - take us out of our customary patterns

of over busyness, hyper-cognitivism and extreme talkativityinto a way of being in which emotion and feeling are given a much larger place …. they are asking us, so to speak, to heal

the rift in experience that western culture has engendered, and inviting us to return to aspects of our being that are much older

in evolutionary terms: more in tune with the body and its functions, closer to the life of instinct.”

Kitwood, T. 1997. Dementia Reconsidered: The Person comes First. Buckingham: Open University Press.
