Regression and Recovery
Using an accessible neurobiological model, the course explains how control shifts away from the prefrontal cortex during regression, why logic collapses, and how experiences such as anxiety, trauma, meaning-laden situations, and reactive awakenings can trigger or sustain these states. Special attention is given to why steady-state regressions are frequently misdiagnosed and misunderstood.

- Recognizing RegressionRegressions are actual events inside the brain that involve a shift in brain function, resulting in a temporary or long-term reduction in the ability to think straight and control emotions. During a regression, the locus of control shifts from the uniquely human prefrontal cortex to more primitive areas in the mammalian and reptilian brain, making thoughts and actions more reflexive and automatic.3
- Thinking ErrorsIdentifying common thinking errors is essential for building emotional resilience because these errors are primary indicators of regression, a state where individuals lose the ability to function at their highest emotional and intellectual levels. By recognizing these patterns, individuals can move toward differentiation, which is the process of defining the self while remaining connected to others3
- Living in the TrenchesAn overview of Dr. David Schnarch's manuscript called "Living at the Bottom of the Ocean."3
- It's a Brain State, Not a Fatal FlawFunctioning is a brain state where the uniquely human prefrontal cortex maintains control over rational thought and emotional regulation.3
