Description:

After being traumatized, the body keeps pumping out stress hormones that make people feel frazzled, agitated, or shut down. Talk therapy alone doesn’t reset the limbic system, the part of the brain that creates a sense of fear and helplessness. In this workshop, you’ll learn the latest research surrounding traumatic imprints, and learn if and how traumatic imprints can be addressed using techniques drawn from yoga, theater, and somatic therapy.
