The nervous system sets the tone for how we interact with the world around us. Difficult life experiences, unprocessed trauma, pain, racism / patriarchy / capitalism / etc. create nervous system states that are fearful, shut down, and defensive—but it doesn't have to stay that way! Learning more about how the nervous system works is a great first step in finding more flexibility and resilience within your own body and nervous system.
This class is for you if... You have a body :) You are curious about the nervous system but don't know where to start. You are not currently in crisis but are looking for tools to support your experience with anxiety, panic, disconnection, defensiveness, and feeling shut down.
