Practical, body-centered tools for calming your nervous system, easing chronic pain, and reconnecting with yourself, drawn from Somatic Experiencing®, Feldenkrais®, Craniosacral Therapy, and Havening Techniques®.

You’ve been through a medical procedure or intervention — either planned or unexpected. It’s over and you’re home. It’s been months or even years and you’re still feeling upset about how you were treated or about something that happened, but your rational mind is telling you “it’s over, let it go.” But you can’t.
It’s helpful to be able to identify where you are on the nervous system “map,” so that you know what type of tools and exercises will be the most helpful to get to Ventral vagus state of connection and safety.
