Polyvagal Theory Nervous System Regulation Guide

Regulate Your Nervous System Using the Polyvagal Theory: A Practical Workbook for Calm, Balance, and Resilience.

Learn how to understand and work with your nervous system to feel more grounded, connected, and in control. This accessible workbook, spanning over 65 pages, explains the essentials of the Polyvagal Theory in clear, simple language and guides you through exercises that help you shift from stress and overwhelm into a state of safety and regulation.

The Polyvagal Theory was developed by Dr Stephen Porges, PhD, and is considered the bench-mark approach when working with trauma informed therapeutic interventions. 

Inside, you’ll discover how to:

• Recognise the signs of dysregulation in your body and mind.

• Deepen your understanding of the neuroscience of your nervous system. 

• Apply practical techniques to return to a state of calm.

• Build daily habits that support resilience and emotional balance.

• Foster greater self-awareness and self-compassion in moments of stress.

• Create a personalised toolkit of strategies that help you to stay emotionally and physically regulated. 

Whether you’re looking to ease anxiety, recover from burnout or simply improve your emotional wellbeing, this workbook is your step-by-step guide to working with — not against — your nervous system. The workbook includes interactive exercises designed to help you identify specific nervous system states and what you need to do to bring yourself back into balance.  

This workbook covers material I would typically explore with clients over six one-to-one sessions, offering you the same depth of insight and guidance at a fraction of the cost.

The workbook is conveniently available as an instant download, fully editable PDF format, and it can also be printed to complete the exercises by hand, giving you the flexibility to engage with the material in whichever way feels right for you.
