Course Description

Moving From Trauma-Informed to Healing Centered Practices

This course will be available on demand during and after the course has been completed for all attendees via zoom recording for 1 full year after the last session.

When stress becomes prolonged or intense (trauma), the body and brain enter a stress-based state. This can lead to ongoing stress symptoms like trouble sleeping, anxiety, depression, digestive issues, chronic tension, stress-related ailments, or learning challenges. These effects can have a cascading impact across the lifespan.

Healing-centered practices help the body and brain return to a balanced, restorative, or high-performance state. Central to this process is the care of the brain, nervous system, and stress-related patterns held in the muscle memory. Advances in neuroscience and epigenetics inspire powerful habits to relieve stress and improve well-being

Course Objectives:

• Integrate healing-centered and restorative practices into trauma-informed care.
• Take care of your brain and central nervous system to feel better and be at your best throughout the day.
• Understand the connection between stress and disease and the importance of stress-relief practices.

• Activate and strengthen your social engagement and learning systems.
• Experience co-regulation in action and the power of mirror neurons.
• Develop a mindset and habits to support your goals.
• Gain actionable insights to boost your health at the cellular level.
• Recognizing the deep connection between culture, identity, and healing.

Module 1- Framing the Move and Setting the Foundation: N.E.A.R. Science gives us a strong foundation to move toward healing centered practice. (Neuroscience, Epigenetics, ACEs and Resilience) 

Module 2 – Your Body’s Protective Mechanisms and Support Systems: Get to know how your nervous system and body adapts when there is stress or a perception of threat.  Activate your built-in support systems to empower and restore your brain and body.
