Trauma shapes how the nervous system detects safety and danger.
When that detection system becomes biased toward threat, survival responses interrupt connection — reinforcing the original wound, altering perception, and maintaining dysregulation.
This Polyvagal Trauma Therapy Certificate trains you to read, understand, and reorganize those autonomic patterns so clients can safely move from protection into access to the full range of human experience — connection, curiosity, intimacy, and coherent engagement — where healing and transformation become possible.
A structured clinical model for safely sequencing trauma recovery through somatic therapy — through the nervous system.
In our age of distraction and division, concentration practice offers a path toward inner unity and collective healing. Join renowned meditation teacher Sharon Salzberg as she guides us in gathering our scattered energies, mind, body, and heart, into a cohesive whole through lecture and guided practice.
As we begin to more fully collect our disperse energies, steadying the nervous system and cultivating a calm, embodied presence, we discover that concentration is not withdrawal, but a return to wholeness and compassionate engagement with the world.
This webinar explores the benefits, risks, and considerations of developing a more upright posture as a resource with trauma survivors, with the goal of promoting well-being without overriding parts of the self represented by a more slumped posture. The use of mindfulness is illustrated throughout a videoed therapy session vignette, and several interventions are demonstrated: grounding and self-touch, contrasting upright with slumped stances, drawing on the therapeutic relationship, and creating homework. This vignette illustrates how to enable an upright posture while supporting integration and communication between parts.
