Restoring Safety

Di Hannah Westphal

Cosa imparerai

A lack of experience of safety highly relates to states of trauma, high anxiety, overwhelm and addiction. While physical safety is important for us, it is only one dimension of our perceived state of safety. This 2-Day Course taps into the experience of our neurological sense of safety - an embodied sense of connection with our physical and emotional needs. It explains the neurological background of how our bodies are wired for safety, the polyvagal theory and together we will explore your own experience of the felt sense in order to restore safety in your life.
