What is Regulation?
The Zones of Regulation is all about developing regulation skills and competencies. But what exactly is regulation and how does it impact our well-being? In Concept 1 (C1), learners explore concrete examples of regulation, such as adjusting the speed of a fan or controlling the temperature of water from a faucet.

It is important that learners understand the basics of regulation as they move on to later Zones Concepts on regulating their own Zones.
