Healing trauma requires more than just insight—it requires working with the body's innate capacity for regulation and resilience. This talk introduces actionable techniques for hacking the nervous system, including polyvagal-informed strategies, breathwork, movement, and sensory-based interventions. Attendees will learn how to shift from dysregulation to a state of safety and connection, both for themselves and their clients.

Perfect for therapists, coaches, and wellness professionals looking to integrate somatic techniques into their practice.
