Arousal Regulation

Arousal regulation refers to the ability to manage our emotional and physiological states, balancing feelings of excitement, anxiety, and calmness. It involves recognizing when we are too alert or too relaxed and using techniques to adjust our state. For example, deep breathing can help reduce anxiety, while physical activity can boost energy when we feel sluggish. Effective arousal regulation can enhance focus, performance, and overall well-being, enabling individuals to respond appropriately to different situations in everyday life.
