    This document provides instructions for an exercise called pendulation, which was coined by Peter Levine. Pendulation involves recognizing where one feels dysregulated versus regulated in the body. Users are instructed to mark where they feel the most activated (red), moderately activated (orange), mildly activated (yellow), neutral (green), and calm (blue) in the body. Mapping these areas of the body can help one deliberately connect to calmer feelings by stepping into areas marked as calm until highly activated sensations dissipate.

    Instructions

    Pendulation, a term coined by Peter Levine in his work on somatic experiencing, is the idea that we can move back and forth
    from dysregulation to regulation by recognizing where these areas exist in our bodies. Try using the following color codes
    to mark where you feel the most activated (anxious, angry, upset) in your body to where you feel the most calm. This
    information will help you deliberately connect to, and feel calmer at times you are highly activated by intentionally stepping
    into your calm space until the highest level sensations are able to discharge and dissipate.

    Red – The places that feel high-range activated


    Orange – The places that feel medium-range activated
    Yellow – The places that feel low-range activated
    Green – The places that feel neutral
    Blue – The places that feel calm
