WEBINARS

These digital offerings provide in-depth explorations of nervous system regulation, safety, and resilience through Somatics, gentle education, and movement re-education. Each program is uniquely designed to guide you through anatomy and physiology, while sharing best practices for integrating this knowledge into your daily home practice—and applying it confidently in the wider world.

SELF-PACED LEARNINGS

Intuitive body-based learning is an integrative, trauma-informed approach with a blend of NLP, movement, and therapeutic education. Discover simple and supportive strategies to reclaim your daily practice, pain-care and build emotional and physical resilience. Every offering is collaborative and combines intuitive body-based learning with progressive self-regulation tools for a deeper exploration of your physical and emotional landscapes. Offered in person and online.​

WEBINARS

1

TENDING TO THE NERVOUS SYSTEM

We begin by exploring the differences between the Central and Peripheral Nervous Systems, with a focus on the role of the Somatic and Autonomic Nervous Systems in self-regulation.

 

From there, we take a deeper dive into the Vagus Nerve—learning how to access it through alignment of the spine, diaphragms, and psoas. This approach offers a powerful pathway to cultivating safety and resilience within the body.

THE ESSENTIALS OF BREATHING AND RESPORITORY HEALTH

We begin with an in-depth exploration of the respiratory system, highlighting the critical role of the nervous system and the diaphragm in restoring a sense of safety and reducing fear and anxiety through a trauma-informed lens.

​

 You’ll learn one of the most scientifically supported breathing assessments available to movement professionals and trainers—the BIQ, created by Dr. Belisa Vranich. This functional tool measures respiratory capacity with accuracy and ease, offering a practical framework that can be applied immediately in both in-person and virtual training sessions.

​

  • 2-hour interactive lecture

  • 45-minute breath-work & movement practice

  • Breathing exercise glossary 

  • Best Breathing Practices: COVID-19 by Dr. Belisa Vranich

LET'S TALK ABOUT LOAD: SENSORY BASED STRENGTH TRAINING

Heavy load activities involve pushing, pulling, or lifting heavy objects. While often thought of as purely physical, these movements are a form of sensory activity.

 

As adults, we rarely consider strength and fitness as tools for sensory regulation—but they absolutely are.

​

Strength training offers a powerful way for people—whether neurotypical or neurodiverse—to engage in physical activity while supporting nervous system regulation.

 

For those on the autistic spectrum, it can be especially beneficial, and you will learn how to fine-tune your programming for neurodivergent populations.
