Trauma & the Nervous System

Learn how your brain is wired to respond to danger, and how overwhelming experiences can cause us to get stuck in danger-response mode. This class will include some experiential activities to help you feel how to monitor and consciously affect your own nervous system. This class is appropriate for the public, yet also will have enough juicy information to be very relevant for practitioners of all types. $10-$20 sliding scale. Registration required.
