Nervous System Health: For Ourselves, Our Families, and Our World
A few months ago, I had the privilege of presenting a webinar on nervous system health to a group of employees at Self Esteem Brands.
Being a wellness company, their mission is to have learning that supports their vision of helping their employees navigate the transitions we are all experiencing in today’s world.
Jessica Schneider, who spearheads the organization of this learning series, did an amazing job of moderating, and provided structure to the formatting for the topic to engage the participants.
In this recording, you will learn the basics of:
The autonomic nervous system, along with the sympathetic and parasympathetic branches that help regulate our feelings of safety or danger,
How Polyvagal Theory is a framework that helps us understand our nervous systems three-tiered response to stress,
What is the vagus nerve, and how does it affect our gut and our overall nervous system health
What is trauma, acute stress disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder in relation to nervous system health
How to use cueing such as self-attunement to help regulate your own nervous system and teach your kids to do the same
What other tools are available for us to stay regulated in a time where resources and movement can be limited.
If this webinar inspires you, please share it with your family and friends. If you have feedback or questions for me, I’d love to hear about it! Send me an email or contact me via my online application if you’re interested in working with me.
