Each zone is compared to a traffic sign. Blue is used to describe low states of alertness (sad, tired, bored, or sick). Green is used to describe a calm state of alertness (happy, content, focused and ready to learn). The yellow is used to describe a heightened state of alertness and often elevated emotions (stress, anxiety, frustration, excitement, silliness, and wiggles or nervousness. The red is used to describe extremely heightened states of alertness and intense emotions (anger, rage, explosive behaviour, devastation or terror). Strategies are developed to assist with each zone of regulation.
