Dr. James Kustow 'Regulate' – the physiology of dysregulated emotions and how to tame them

During this session, targeted primarily at adolescents and young adults, Dr. James Kustow, a Consultant Psychiatrist interested in the relationship between hypermobility and mental health, will take us on a fascinating journey of the body-mind system. After overviewing how and why emotions are particularly vulnerable to dysregulation in EDS/HSD, he will take a deep, but swift, dive into the physiology of emotions and stress. Through a captivating tour of how our systems respond to (perceived) threats, he will highlight the central role of the autonomic nervous system and, in particular, the vagus nerve. He will explain how activating (or stimulating) the vagus can powerfully calm the body and mind, countering the ‘fight or flight’ response. He will introduce cutting-edge, physiologically underpinned ‘hacks’ to help you take more control of your emotional world. Dysregulation of emotion usually serves as an indicator of a system under strain. Left unchecked this can manifest as physical and mental illness, and cause relationship disturbance.
