Start Regulating from Within

If You Feel Like You're...

  • Constantly overwhelmed, anxious or overstimulated

  • Struggling to concentrate or focus, or remember simple tasks

  • Find yourself easily triggered or emotions seem to live right at the surface

  • Tired yet wired, like rest isn't an option or even feels dangerous

  • OR exhausted of your fatigue, no amount of rest ever feels restorative

  • Disconnected from your body's experience, sensations or emotions

  • Then this course is for you. You're not broken or failing. You're likely living outside of your window of tolerance and your nervous system is doing it's best to keep you safe in a world that hasn't always been safe. Come on a gentle and effective step-by-step process to support your nervous system today.

Our bodies, in their intelligence, remembers our protective responses. However, this can become imprinted in the living tissues of our nervous system, fascia and cells. These protective responses can show up as tension, chronic pain, anxiety, or feeling disconnected from your sense of self or loved ones. Just as the body can learn our protective responses, it can learn to heal as well. This 4-week digital course will help you:

  • Understand how your body stores stress and trauma.

  • Recognize the signs of stored stress and trauma in your own body.

  • Learn simple, effective somatic practices for healing and regulation.

  • Build a toolkit of self-regulation skills you can use anytime.
