Somatic Exercises, Ventral Vagal Relaxation,
Poly Vagal Theory

Reiki Integration

Somatic Exercises, Yoga, Breath Work, Mindfulness, Being Present all support your nervous system to relax and move easily between the parasympathetic (rest and digest) and sympathetic (fight, light, flee, fawn) nervous system. 

The Ventral Vagal Vagal Nerve runs from the top of the head, down the neck, shoulders, into all the organs and down to the GI track. Learn about this amazing system, and how to regulate your own nervous system.

Welcome to our monthly gatherings on the Nervous System and Poly Vagal Theory. In these sessions, we will explore how our emotions and feelings are intricately stored in the body, emphasizing a "bottom up" approach to awareness. Together, we'll uncover the profound connections between our physiological responses and emotional experiences, paving the way for understanding and healing. Join us as we embark on this enlightening journey! We will practice somatic, body, and yoga exercises.  

We will discuss Zoom vs. meeting in person, maybe alternating....thoughts?
