“Calm is not the absence of change, but the ability to remain present within it.”
Life keeps moving whether we are ready or not. The goal is not to stop the waves, but to stay connected to ourselves while they pass through. Presence creates a different kind of stability.

When a child “refuses,” shuts down, or escalates… it’s easy to see behavior.
But often, it’s actually regulation.
And when we respond to behavior without understanding regulation, things escalate faster instead of getting better.
At the Unlocking Regulation Summit, you’ll learn what’s happening underneath those moments and how to respond without increasing stress.
It's free to attend. Virtual.

-------------------------------------------------TITLE: Brooding identified as a major driver of bedtime procrastination, alongside physical markers of stress
People who stay up later than intended may have a weaker physiological capacity for self-control. A new study published in the Journal of Health Psychology links lower heart rate variability to greater bedtime procrastination.
Many individuals experience the temptation to prolong their use of digital devices, or complete further tasks, despite being aware that they should already be asleep—a behavior known as bedtime procrastination. Scientists have previously connected bedtime procrastination to difficulties with managing behavior and emotions. Individuals who struggle to prioritize long-term wellbeing over short-term enjoyment, or who have trouble regulating negative feelings, are thought to be more prone to pushing their bedtime later.
What has been less well understood is whether this tendency also has a measurable biological marker. A promising candidate is heart rate variability (HRV), defined as the natural variation in the time between heartbeats. Previous research has demonstrated that a higher level of this variability—particularly the component driven by the body’s calming “rest and digest” nervous system (the vagus nerve)—is associated with adaptability to stress and a greater capacity for self-control.
Hence, the researchers in the present study sought to examine whether this physiological marker, alongside self-reported difficulties with managing behavior and emotions, could predict how much someone tends to procrastinate at bedtime.
Lena Mareen Grabo and Silja Bellingrath of the University of Duisburg-Essen in Germany recruited 135 adults aged between 18 and 82 (with an average age of around 29; approximately 65% female). Participants first sat quietly for ten minutes while their heart rate was continuously measured using an accurate chest strap device. From this recording, the researchers calculated each person’s baseline level of heart rate variability.
Participants also filled out questionnaires reporting on how often they procrastinate at bedtime, how well they manage their own behavior and emotions, and how often they engage in specific thinking styles. These thinking styles included a tendency to “brood” (getting stuck in passive, repetitive, negative thought loops) versus “reflect” (purposefully thinking through problems to solve them).
The results pointed to a clear picture in which bedtime procrastination reflects challenges across multiple different aspects of self-control simultaneously. Individuals scoring higher on bedtime procrastination tended to have lower heart rate variability, greater difficulty regulating their behavior, and greater difficulty managing their emotions. Importantly, each of these three factors contributed independently to the prediction of bedtime procrastination.
When analyzing the specific ways people deal with emotions, a nuanced picture emerged. While using “cognitive reappraisal” (a deliberate strategy of reframing stressful situations in a more positive light) initially appeared to reduce bedtime procrastination, it lost its predictive power when other emotional habits were factored in. Ultimately, only “brooding” significantly predicted procrastinating at bedtime in the final model. Conversely, engaging in more reflective, problem-focused thinking did not show any link to delaying sleep.
The study also found that bedtime procrastination was moderately associated with both shorter sleep duration and worse sleep quality, reinforcing just how consequential this habit can be for nightly rest.
Interestingly, the study found no significant connection between a person’s biological heart rate variability and their self-reported measures of behavioral and emotional regulation. This suggests the different components of the self-control system operate somewhat independently, even though they all contribute to the same behavioral outcome.
“Taken together, the findings highlight bedtime procrastination as a problem of diminished self-regulatory capacity reflected in both physiological (lower heart rate variability) and psychological (poorer behavioral and emotion regulation) domains, yet they also suggest that self-regulation is not a unitary construct,” Grabo and Bellingrath concluded.
Some limitations should be noted. For example, the study was conducted at one point in time, and the researchers caution that it cannot reveal strict causality. It is possible that low self-control causes bedtime procrastination, which causes poor sleep, which in turn further depletes self-control the next day in a bidirectional loop.
The study, “Bedtime procrastination as a typical problem of self-regulation? Insights from the examination of heart rate variability, behavioral regulation and emotion regulation,” was authored by Lena Mareen Grabo and Silja Bellingrath.

Big emotions don’t go away.
But children can learn to move through them faster.
With less intensity. Less fallout.That’s regulation.
And it can change a lot for the better:
- Mornings
- Transitions
- After school
- Your confidence in the hard momentsOn May 21 I'll be speaking on how kids learn to regulate... and why it takes time.

You know those moments where your child can do something… but then suddenly they just can’t?
Same human. Same skill.
Different moment.That’s in large part due to regulation.
And when you understand it, everything starts to shift.It's not overnight, and it's not perfect.
But daily life can begin to feel more doable.Join me Thursday, May 21st.

Do you want more energy and stress reduction and energizing human connection, but you feel too introverted and drained to do anything about feeling exhausted all the time? I have a couple suggestions that might help!
1. Self-regulation:
There are many self-regulation methods (explore them!) but two quick simple options are splashing your face with cold water, or taking a quick breath in followed by a long exhale.Exhaling longer than you inhale calms your autonomic nervous system by switching your brain from sympathetic (stress response: fight, flight, fuck, freeze) to parasympathetic (rest and digest).
2. Co-Regulation:
Spend a couple minutes with another human you feel comfortable being around. Make eye contact (not necessarily continuously!), talk to each other in calm and soothing voices, and recognize and acknowledge both your and their emotional states through active listening. Physical presence and mutually comfortable consensual touch can elevate the connection.Co-regulation enables two people to mutually facilitate emotion regulation and help us feel grounded. Co-regulation also fosters secure attachment and builds feelings of trust and safety — but I want to focus here on the value that co-regulation can have for each individual regardless of the relationship.

Self-regulate your garden! Monitor & adjust to solve problems. Spot aphids? Introduce ladybirds/bugs instead of harsh chemicals! Like life, gardening thrives on feedback & adjustments. #selfregulation #organic #gyo #backyardgarden #vegetablegarden #gardening #gardenlife #nature #gardendesign

Your body already knows how to calm itself. You just need to turn it on.
Have you noticed how touching your neck can calm you down instantly? That’s your vagus nerve. a direct line between your brain and body that controls your relaxation response.
Try this: Gently massage the sides of your neck in slow strokes for 2 minutes. Or just hum. The vibration activates it immediately.#vagusnerve #anxietyrelief #selfregulation #naturalhealing #VeroWellness #TMGcommunity

Storms don’t pause for our comfort. Neither does growth.
I’ve watched people face real chaos, loss, uncertainty, exhaustion, and still choose to return to something quieter inside. That choice, again and again, is the work.
You don’t graduate from hard times. You learn to move through them differently.
