Description
When trauma takes hold, it’s not just in the mind – it’s embedded in the body and nervous system.
In this dynamic 60-minute session, best-selling trainer and seasoned clinician Chinwé Wiliams brings you the 10 most effective brain-to-body interventions that blend the best of Polyvagal Theory, EMDR, and somatic approaches.
You’ll discover simple, science-backed ways to:
- Use safety cues and co-regulation to restore balance in the autonomic nervous system
- Interrupt trauma loops through bilateral stimulation and adaptive information processing
- Integrate body-based awareness, movement, and grounding to release stored trauma physiology
Walk away with concrete tools you can use immediately to help clients move from survival to safety – while protecting your own nervous system in the process.
