175. Order in the Court: 6 Ways I Self-Regulated During Triggering Testimony
About this episode
Lesley Cain shares practical self-regulation tools used during stressful courtroom testimony to help listeners maintain control in triggering situations.
Hey, Survivor! What does self-regulation actually look like in a stressful, triggering environment? As I sat through intense courtroom testimony this week, I had to stay calm, composed, and grounded—without visibly reacting. It wasn’t easy, but it was necessary. I’ll share the tools I used in real time, including breathwork, physical awareness, emotional processing, and cognitive reframing. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, triggered, or afraid of how you might react in a difficult moment, this episode will give you practical tools to stay in control and maintain your integrity. 🎧 Listen now and remember: Feelings aren’t facts. So respond, don’t react. Know who you're dealing with. Know who you are. 💚Lesley Book your call here. Become a Vibrant Survivor insider here. Let's connect on IG!
