HOW TO HEAL HYPER-VIGILANCE

1. Accomplish closure with the event so that we come back to a place of rest. 

Calm the body using 'touch regulation'. 

_ New awareness; smell, place, ( turn your attention to that object) the concept of observation and not absorbing. 

2. Re-create a new point of view. 

_ Can you see a threat ? Can you touch, hear, smell or taste the threat? All these are aimed at answering the question is there an actual physical threat?    

_ On achieving the above two steps we  come to a place of calmness, where your back to the physical world and out of your jumbled head space. 

Then one final step is asking, what is safe that I can touch,smell,taste,hear,see? By doing so we find ourselves doing good to our state of mind through reiterating our safety by validating our present reality to truly being free from any physical threats.

We come to the conclusion that those are thoughts and indeed not facts nor reality and breathe in to the reality that indeed we are safe despite having thoughts of fear.
