Abstract: Polyvagal theory was developed by Stephen Porges, Ph.D. to describe our “flight or fight” response to stressful situations. When faced with trauma, some individuals react with anger, anxiousness, or shame. Some retreat. Some fight. What induces these reactions? In some homes, people were raised where shouting was a common occurrence. Others may have simply spent time in their room, seeking sanctuary.
