Hi. I’m Joe, grandson of Watergate prosecutor, Leon Jaworski. I’m a Democrat running against @TXAG Ken Paxton. RT and follow to help me rid TX of criminally-indicted Paxton who thinks he is above the law. #JaworskiforTXAG

TX govt. has six major issues to solve:
Roads and transportation;
Education;
Utilities and services;
Public safety;
Natural disaster response; and
Public health infrastructure.
I’m tired of those who choose to fight culture wars instead of doing their job. #JaworskiForTexas – at Houston, TX

Great buzz here as our workshop is about to begin. Deb Dana a polyvagal theory to safety and connection @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019

Polyvagal theory is the science of connection. Feeling safe enough to falll in love with life. @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019

A change in the way we think about the autonomic nervous system. A predictable hierarchy rather than a balance system @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019
George Thompson retweeted
We have a drive to survive and need to feel safe enough to fulfill our longing to connect @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019

A traumatised nervous system dysregulates and gets stuck there @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019

ANS adapts to survive in trauma which denies social connection @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019

Trauma is a chronic disruption of connectedness (Porges) @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019

From a state of connection (social engagement) health, growth and restoration are possible @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019

Polyvagal theory is a hopeful theory because the nervous system can be reshaped @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019

Co-regulation is a biological imperative @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019

Two neuroceptive mismatches in trauma. Inability to calm defensiveness in safety and inability to activate defence in danger @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019
George Thompson retweeted
Learn to listen to you nervous system’s wisdom @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019
George Thompson retweeted
Both/and of danger and safety. Need to reduce cues of danger and activate cues of safety. @ddpnetwork #ddpkansascity2019

awareness starts with neuroception moves to perception influencing autonomic state. Leads to internal experience of thoughts and feelings and story. Behaviour comes out of this. Starting with behaviour is starting in the wrong place #ddpkansascity2019
