Deb Dana, LCSW, is a renowned clinician, consultant, speaker, and author whose groundbreaking work bridges the science of the nervous system with everyday wellbeing. As a founding member of the Polyvagal Institute and advisor to both Khiron Clinics and Unyte, Deb is widely recognized for making Polyvagal Theory accessible to both professionals and the general public. She pioneered the Rhythm of Regulation® approach to help people understand and connect with their nervous systems in meaningful ways. Deb’s clinical publications, The Polyvagal Theory in Therapy and Polyvagal Exercises, have become foundational texts in the field, while her bestselling books, including Anchored and The Nervous System Workbook, bring this transformative work to a broader audience.

In today’s episode, host Shay Beider welcomes Dana Deb to discuss her work with regulating the nervous system using the principles of Polyvagal Theory. Deb explains that every nervous system is wired for connection and regulation and emphasizes the importance of understanding how our nervous system functions. There are three organizing principles: neuroception, hierarchy, and co-regulation that the duo discuss. Deb shares her personal story of navigating loss and how her “Glimmers Journal” allows readers to reflect on small moments of hope that create larger moments of healing. Finally, the pair discuss reframing behaviors through an autonomic lens, viewing negative behaviors as dysregulated rather than malicious.
