I’ve been invited to speak at the Rotary Club about Healing Ordinary Trauma. You are welcome to join us on Zoom.

We meet from 7 to 8:30 PM Eastern Thursday October 5

Meeting ID: 884 6272 6576

Passcode: 068807

In this free experiential workshop you’ll learn about how practicing somatic mindfulness can help you regulate your emotions to reduce anxiety and depression.

Healing Ordinary Trauma Through a Strong, Resilient Nervous System

When we feel unsafe, our nervous systems can activate survival responses such as fight, flight, freeze, or fawn. Our bodies store traumatic memories as sensations and energy, which get expressed as compulsive, negative thoughts. In this experiential workshop, you’ll learn how to lower these hypervigi- lant responses to perceived danger and the anxiety that accompanies them. Some of the tools I’ll share to help you self-regulate include grounding with cyclic sighing and a 5-4-3-2-1 senses practice. These forms of somatic mindfulness allow you to build a stronger, more resilient nervous system, so you can improve your mental health and enjoy your life.
