Amygdala Quieting Techniques

Meaning

Amygdala Quieting Techniques are structured behavioral and physiological interventions designed to intentionally modulate and reduce the overactivity of the amygdala, the brain region centrally involved in processing fear, threat, and emotional arousal. The clinical objective is to decrease the intensity of the physiological stress response, thereby fostering improved emotional regulation and reducing chronic anxiety states. Consistent application of these techniques supports hormonal health by mitigating the dysregulating effects of persistent stress on the HPA axis.
