The 3-3-3 Emotional Regulation Protocol: A Portable Tool for Grief Bursts

Grief bursts don't wait for a convenient time. They show up in the grocery store, at your desk, in the middle of a family dinner. What you need in those moments isn't a lecture on the stages of grief — you need a tool you can actually use.

The 3-3-3 Emotional Regulation Protocol is that tool. Three phases. Three techniques in each phase. Roughly three to five minutes when you use the full version, or as little as thirty seconds when you don't have that luxury.
