Polyvagal Theory and Trauma, presented by Deb Dana and Melanie Burns

Join Deb Dana and Melanie Burns in this tour of the polyvagal theory and the rhythm of regulation. Learn to track the states of your own autonomic nervous system experience through your response to cues of safety and cues of danger, & interrupt and re-shape habitual autonomic patterns. Discover how to introduce PVT practices in sessions. Includes real demonstrations. Get beneath symptoms and safely listen to the “story” of your autonomic nervous system, and re-shape your experience toward safety and connection.
