Regulation Begins in the Body: Mapping the Nervous System (Live)
Monday, August 4, 2025 - 1-2pm (EDT)
Somatic Experiencing and Body-Oriented Therapy Series
Reclaim Safety, Connection, and Healing—One Breath, One Sensation at a Time
Trauma is not just a story we remember—it’s a response our body still holds. In this powerful, experiential series, you’ll learn how to listen to your body’s signals, shift states of overwhelm, and gently release what no longer serves you.
Based on the groundbreaking work of Dr. Peter Levine
(Somatic Experiencing) and integrated with the SWEET Method—a revolutionary
model for embodied healing—this series offers concrete tools, guided practice,
and a safe space to explore body-based transformation.
